basses do you own?!

OH EM EF GEE it's been so long since we've had these kinds of poll threads; so i made one.

Also, if you will, post what basses you have and any pictures of your precious booty... and your actual booty if you feel the need... (yes, you do).

I have 4 right now, Cort GB34a, Cort Curbow 6, 1982 fretless Ibanez Musician and a fretless Fender Jazz.

I voted 3, though it's really more like 2.5.

I have my Ibanez SR506, my Peavey Patriot (out being refinished), and my Stambaugh, which is technically being built, but I've paid for half of it and will have it in a few months anyway. :p

3, but one of them hasn't been played in 3 years, has no strings and is missing a tuning peg. Don't cry, its an encore.

I have 3 guitars as well though, all of which get about equal action.

6+ but it's not because I'm an ear whore. Well it is partly, but also because they feel and play differently. Recently bought an old Gibson which brings me up to (thinking...) 5 electrics (although one of them is complete junk), one electric acoustic (which I play the most), and two uprights (which I seldom play, I should really get rid of one of them but don't want to think about trying to ship it). Ok, I admit it, I'm actually a parentheses(sp?) whore!

I wanna know how many Tryxx has and whether he's ever going to get more :p

Although technically I have 3 I only use 2, the other one - my first bass has simply became a waste of space in my room. PLus I can't actually play the thing as the pickups don't always work, and I can hardly handle roundwounds anymore.

The basses I do use are my Yamaha TRB1006 (with halfwounds) and my defretted OLP stingray (with flatwounds obviously).

Cort A4 in black
OLP MM2 in Blue
1976 Kay SB1-AB

The Cort for my metal band (nice honky, boomy sound)
The OLP for my Soft Rock/Pop band (poppy, funky sound)
The Kay because it's old and so hard to play, but sounds deliciously uprighty and old skool and...well just cuz i'm love with the old gal.

Additionally I have a Les Paul Special II Flame (which i've modded a fair bit) and an Ovation acoustic guitar.

Not too bad really, I don't think.

Next on the list - Fender Geddy Lee :D:D:D
