brands i love are really fender, warwick and musicman. warwicks have the simpliciy and the beauty, musicmans have the power and fenders are made to be used like a hammer. i want to achieve total mastery of the instrument. having a bass and knowing without question, exactly what the next sound you're gonna create is, without ever havnig to think about it. it's a near impossibility, but that's what you need to be striving for.
i love bass!
