My bass is wonderful...I have 5 basses, but I always grab this one first..

I paid 500 bucks for this used 1996 Fender P-bass

What's special is the color: Sea-foam green with a faded white pearloid pick-guard...it matches Lucky Design's Danelectro, and because I put flat-wound strings on it, sounds too cool for words..well, I could say it sounds like Jameson, Donald Duck Dunn, and Rocco Prestia's sound..if you know Fender, you know what I am talking about! Warm, sunny, juicy, beefy....tiki!!!!!(soul-tiki!!)

I also own a Carvin 6 string, a Music Man sterling (cost me 1400, would love to sell it for 700), a Warwick steamer 5 string, and a vintage style Telecaster p-bass (1953 style) and I play none of them very much..I always go for my green p-bass!!!

The only other bass I might play a lot, if I was lucky to own, would be Bong's rickenbaker...that thing sounds sweet!!

as for Lucky Design's axe...his words don't do the sound justice...it sounds HUGE!! And it sounds really good when Lucky plays it, because he is one Smokin' Menehune, and can play Jazz, rockabilly, early country, just about anything!

Some times, just to annoy us, he will start up with the AC/DC riffs, just for a goof!!

Then Shirley starts break-dancing.....
