I am a bassist....these are my tools

[martinjlm]

At least the stuff on the stands. The instruments on the chairs belong to two of my sons....one's a bassist, one's a guitarist...

This is for my annual insurance policy photo.

Be interesting to see who, if anyone can identify at least 4 of my 6 basses ( one I don't expect anyone who doesn't know me from Talkbass.com to get)

Not bad! But the Fender Precision and the Fender Jazz (both in chairs) belong to my son. I'm speaking of the six on the floor in stands.

You nailed the two Alembics and the two Music Man basses (both are Sabres, not the more popular Stingray).

No Warwicks in the house.

nice arsenal. If guitars are axes, what do you call basses?

How do you tune it (or tuna it)?

White guitar on the chair is a Strat. Belongs to my older son. No Paul Reed Smiths in the house, but the dark gray guitar on the other chair looks a lot like a PRS. It's a Michael Kelly.

Closer look at the two Oddball didn't identify (he nailed the other four)

This one I had custom built by a luthier named Jacob Marchlewski. Nobody would have guessed that one unless they knew me.

Here's the other with a more than obvious hint....

Probably....might be a short-scale
