Amazing collection! Do you find time to play them all? Can you list your favorites? You've certainly had the opportunity to play many different basses, unlike alot of lefties.

Ibanez....
I'll be happy to do a list of favorites as soon as I get em all up here, I still have a ways to go.... but the timing on your question is good because I'm just getting around to posting the Ibanez stuff...and as far as a bass I go back to time and time again, the Ibanez RB 650 is IMHO, the most underrated bass on the planet. However, I hope it stays that way so I can have as many of them as I want

....the only "big name" guy that I know swears by these is Kenny Aaronson (Bob Dylan, Hall and Oates, Rick Derringer, Stories, Neil Schon and Sammy Hagar, Foghat, Brian Setzer, Dust, Mick Taylor, Dave Edmunds, Leslie West, etc., etc.). To quote Kenny: "...for guitars, I still have the '58 P-Bass, I have a '63 P-Bass that's great, I have a Spectre that's active, and I'm using a few ESP J-styled basses. Another GREAT instrument I picked up for $100 from some guy in the street is this maple neck Ibanez RoadStar, that has DiMarzio's in it. Its simply as good as any Fender that ever was. As you have heard, this bass sounds great and records really well. I love this bass, I use it with LaBella nylon tape wound strings..."
