    The Rob Allen 5string fretless is the one I get all inappropriate about... if it was single I'd marry it!❤❤

    Awesome Video. Bass Guy. Its a question that I have struggled to answer adequately on several occasions.
    I have to answer similar for fishing rods as well.
    The correct answer to the question "how many guitars do you need?" Is "All of them".

    Great Video Bass Guy, and very cool music to boot.

    Love most of them, but my favourites would have to be The Rob Allen or the Adamovic. Meh, I guess I just love fretless basses. My least favourite would have to be the Hofner.

    Have to agree with you Robin about the Hoffner. It sounded the dullest of the lot.

    Funny question that usually is uttered by a species that has more shoes and handbags than one person could use in a lifetime haha. It would take a very brave man to take aim and throw that question back over the fence.
