Beside my 2003 FG 4003 I have the following basses: Epiphone Flying V (for the fun and looks), A steve harris P bass, a Status Graphite Energy 5, A Catalyst Tigris Bass and an old P/J bass which needs a new neck. The latter is getting a J neck instead of the P neck and the fingerboard has to be maple...
All are different, but I like my Ric most. Mostly for rehearsel and gigging I take the Status, as it is the cheapest good sounding/playing bass. I rehearse after working time, so the bass has to stay in the trunk of my car all day, and the Status got a Graphite neck that doesn't fear cold heat and humidity. I wouldn't do that with my Ric, and sometimes I take the ric for gigging, never for rehearsel.
