Top 5 basses of all time? Hmmmmm...

 

Well, there's the one that this guy is holding (I think it's a Fender? ;) ) ...

Then, there's this bass by Fodera, and the guy who usually holds it makes it sound really great...

This is a special bass that brings the thunder from Gibson and the precision of Fender. The guy who played it most, really knew how to make it sound so right...

There are some bad-ass musicians checking out this bass. It must be in the top five! I bet it sounds funky!

One last fab bass for the top five...and it's a lefty!

OK, maybe there are some other basses that should be in the top 5, but fo' sure, yo, these would make it in the top 20...don't you think?

 

Peace.

Messiaen knew how to parlay the funk.

. 1957 Fender Precision (i.e. the first one with the split pickup)
that is what i was referring to because there were precisions made before this

 

sorry for the unclear reference
