Bass Pics

I think its a sickness.. And when I find basses I really like, I usually buy two (if they are cheap enough) ; hence a lot of these say "my other one". I've discovered something over the years, and I think it's one possible cause of my addiction....an inexpensive bass can often be made to play and sound as good as one costing 10 times as much. As proof, I offer my latest creation, the Yamaha A3 (RGB).
