Very good video topic. Most gear disagreements among bass players come from the fact that we need vastly different tools to do our jobs, depending on genre. Especially if you're an older musician playing a basic genre like blues or classic rock, you need to develop an understanding that there's more to life than P bass into Ampeg with no pedals.

I really enjoyed fantasizing about top of the line gear as i am the proud owner of a super fabulous Affinity P-bass that came in the Fender Bass Starter kit i bought in december 2020 as the Covid pandemic was keeping me home. Anyway, cheers Gregor! EDIT: Oh my bucket list bass would probably a Sandberg California 4 string, 24 frets perfection.

I've been lucky enough to have some great instruments and amps. Over the years, I had a terrific custom cabinet made, a TL cabinet with an EVM-15L speaker, over the years, powered it with an Ampeg V4 (the guitar head), but later, a Fender 300PS, basically Fender's take on an SVT. I've always like Fender better than Ampeg. That was my favorite amp, but I hated moving it! I had a custom 1977 Rickenbacker 4001, but had lots of problems with the neck, until TWA snapped the headstock off in 1979, and with the settlement, I bought a used 75 Carl Thomson bass, which I eventually sold, then bought back, and still have it. I've also got an Alembic Distillate that's amazing, but if I could have anything, I'd love an Alembic Series II, along with the Alembic F-2B preamp and the SF-2 Super Filter, to MacIntosh amps (pretty much the old touring rig of Phil Lesh.) And I LOVE Phil Jones equipment, I've played some of their compact and mid-range amps, and they're absolutely amazing! While I don't own any amps these days, (I've been playing with Amplitube 5,) I do use Phil Jones headphones, which are spectacular.

I have a 5-string Sterling by Music Man Stingray Subray5 HH. Two humbuckers, two band EQ of bass and treble and 22-fret maple neck with maple fingerboard. Maybe not so much the single humbucker sting rays, but the double humbuckers are grate for Hard Core to mild technical death metal. I also have an Ibanez SR306EB 6-string bass with 24-frets and a 3 band EQ with Bass, Mid, and Treble. It also has a coil selector switch on it. Now that thing will work grate with extreme technical death metal especially if you put new stainless steel round wound strings on it. Of course you can play other kinds of music with them. But for basics, I have a 4-string Silver Tone P Bass with 20-frets. completely passive. I got that as a birthday gift from my family in 2006. So that thing is very special to me.

If money is no object, I want a Testore (father or son, I don't care) and a Prescott 5 string to shake the orchestra off of the stage (you didn't say it HAS to be an electric bass). Then a vintage precision, as old as I can find. I would like an eight string, but don't know enough to make a specific selection. Lastly, I want a six string Electric buck down to a low G instead of a high c. I'm fairly open to Brand on that as well, Maybe I try one of those German bases that you were mentioning. I love the Rheingold preamp/ EQ pedal, and I also want the Motown DI. I would like the classic SVT with 8x10 cabinet, but to that I would add some sort of modern rig. It is not a terribly decisive list, and I think it's clear that I have not really explored all options that are out there. I guess I am just used to using what I have playing it as well as I can. My Peavey T40 has served me well for decades.

Hey Gregor! Nice video as always 👌 Just a little suggestion for future videos; I noticed you did mention an italian Amp, the GR, but no italian basses so I think you REALLY should check out Manne, Laurus and Meridian. Laurus is perfect for jazz, it sets the notch so high. For Pop, R&B and stuff, Meridian makes a great choice, better the other brands you put on this list. And finally, Manne... it's mainly used by jazz and rock players but, believe me, Manne basses growl so hard they would make Dingwalls pale out. I got one, a "basic" model, 5 string and graphite fretboard, and though I played dozens of basses no one compares to this model. Give them a go, you won't regret it 😎

I agree that a P, a Rick and a Music Man are the perfect combo for all types of music though I would not recommend a Music Man for a 5er since the neck is so narrow. As for a Pre-amp, you can't go wrong with the good old Sans Amp. The early "Tele style slab body" P basses are cool but I don't find them to have a definitive sound nor are they indicative of any style of music or player. The Fodera? Pffft. Had one. An overrated, overpriced toneless wonder. The Aquilar is nice but I don't like the tone controls. I have a Mark Bass and it works fine. As for cabs -- they're so personal and there are several good choices. I mix a Bergantino with a Hartke. It gives me a clarity along with a punch that suits my styles, but that's a personal choice. And for a jazz gig, I can take just one cab. For fretless, I go with a Fender Jazz. That's the classic fretless sound. The SVT is cool, but honestly, the Sans Amp can get you close. As for the big cabinet...I don't see the point. Any time you need that much volume you'll be going through a P.A. anyway. I also have a place in my heart for Ibanez basses. Clean, clear, active sound, looks sleek and doesn't break the bank.

Der mit Abstand teuerste Bass auf der Liste soll ausgerechnet für einen Jazzer gut sein. Inhaltlich vielleicht nachvollziehbar, wenn wir davon ausgehen, dass die Lernkurve bei Jazz gefühlt unendlich steil und lang ist. In diesen Höhen ist nur leider auch die Luft bekanntlich deutlich dünner und die Verdienstmöglichkeiten sind entsprechend geringer. Wenn ein Musiker sich ein Gerät für 15 Tausend Ocken holt, lässt er sich vielleicht ein Gerät von einem befreundeten Luthier auf den Leib schneidern. Denk ich mal.

In dieser Liste hier geht es um Trauminstrumente. Außerdem muss ich anmerken, dass die meisten Jazz Bassisten, die ich in meiner Karriere kennengelernt habe, keine professionellen Musiker sind. Im Sinne von, sie verdienen ihr Geld nicht mit Musik, sondern mit einem normalen Job und betreiben ihre Musik als Hobby. Unter denen sind, wie auch überall anders, zum Teil sehr wohlhabende Menschen, die sich solche Instrumente durchaus leisten können und selten nicht nur eins von diesem Kaliber besitzen. Wenn man mal in ein professionelles Orchester schaut, dort spielen die Kontrabassisten nicht selten Instrumente die locker mal 50-100 Tausend Euro kosten. Dagegen verblassen nahezu alle E-Bässe zu günstigen Alternativen.
