I HAVE ALWAYS TRIED TO FIND THE MOST INTERESTING BASS GUITARS I COULD THAT WOULD MEET MY PERSONAL CRITERIA FOR PLAYABILITY, SOUND AND OF COURSE WHEN POSSIBLE, GREAT LOOKS. I WILL OFFER TO MY SITE VIEWERS SOME OF MY PERSONAL COLLECTION PIECES AS I FIND MY ARCHIVE PHOTOS. REGRETABLY A LOT OF PICTURES OF SOME INCREDIBLE INSTRUMENTS WERE LOST IN A COMPUTER CRASH AND WITHOUT THE BACKUP I COULD NOT RECOVER THEM. I HAD MANAGED TO SAVE SOME ALONG THE WAY ON FLOPPY DISCS THAT WERE RECENTLY FOUND AFTER THE MOVE INTO MY NEW LOCATION. HERE ARE SOME EXAMPLES OF THE BASSES THAT I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE OF WORKING WITH AND OWNED. AS I LOOK AT THESE MYSELF I ONLY WISH THAT I COULD HAVE KEEP THEM ALL. OF COURSE THAT IS NOT REALISTIC AS THEY TAKE UP A LOT OF ROOM AND ALL INSTRUMENTS NEED MAINTENANCE AND CARE. AT TIMES IT BECAME QUITE TIME CONSUMING TO MAINTAIN THE COLLECTION IN THE STATE THAT I CARE FOR ALL OF MYBASSES. YOU CAN LITERALLY PICK UP ANY ONE OF MY BASSES AT ANY TIME AND IT WIL BE CLEAN, INTONATED PROPERLY AND IN TUNE WITH GREAT ACTION IN THE NECK. WHEN I SAY THAT I HAVE HAD THE PLEASURE OF PLAYING SO MANY OF THE BEST BASSES OUT THERE I AM NOT KIDDING. I ALSO WISH THAT I HAD PICTURES OF MY EARLY 80'S ALEMBIC SERIES 1 AND MY VINTAGE FENDERS AND GIBSONS. THIS IS THE BEST I CAN SHOW YOU RIGHT NOW SO PLEASE ENJOY AT LEAST A BRIEF LOOK INTO MY JOURNEY AND EXPLORATION OF THE MODERN BASS GUITAR  MORE PHOTOS WILL FOLLOW.
