Show Us Your Non- Warwick Bass Then!

Soz for being nerdy. I can't help it. I blame my luthier friend.

But that Ibanez is just spectacular! Wenge and bubinga neck, VERY lightweight but with a fatter neck then usual on Ibanez. Radiussed pickups made by Seymour Duncan.
Had a luthite Ibanez that didn't work out that well, but these are amazing. Someone told me these were transitional models where they kept the Ergodyne name but went back to using proper woods, and before releasing the Grooveline and the Affirma.

There's nothing I like more than a natural-finish dark wood, and that Ibby has me drooling!

These rival any Warwick for a fraction of the price.
 
Oh boy. I was so gonna sell this bass. But I can't.
Adjusted the twin truss rods just now. Bridge is bottomed out and the action really low.
This thing plays like a dream and just sounds like no other bass ever can or will. Let's keep the old girl.

Happy with the Phil Jones combo? Too bad they don‘t have a tilt back option.
 
The Phil Jones is excellent for practicing, and in a small room with wooden floor can even keep up with a drummer.
PJB cabs use acoustic coupling of floors and walls to make them sound bigger.
Sadly this also means that it relies on that. If you put the combo on your table in the middle of the room all the bottom end is gone.
 
New bass day: this is a Mayones BE Gothic Custom from 2009. It has a mahogany neck with maple fingerboard, the body is amazakoe (which seems to be the same as ovangkol?). As you can see, it is passive with just one pickup very close to the bridge. Together with the black Rotosound flats, it has a very distinctive, almost jazzy sound. But I guess with other strings and some pedals, it can also live up to it‘s gothic name. Do you know other basses with such a pickup configuration?

Looks great
 
Just been looking at half the online shops in Europe again.
I do not want another bass. My stock (up to around 3k euro) is way better then theirs.
