Backup: Fender Jag, 30“ feels like a toy, D'Addario Medium strings, P/J pickups My baby: the gloss black Tbird, 34” my favorite, Ernie Ball heavy hybrids, stock humbuckers that sound amazing but upgrading them, any suggestions? May be getting a 5 string Tbird

Squier Classic Vibe 60s Jazz Bass; GHS Flea signature strings; 34" scale; Alnico V single coil pickups (stock). I love this bass. I've had it for over 3 years now; the longest I've had any one bass.
First choice: 1977 Ibanez Silver Series long scale (34") jazz bass moded with EMG HZ pickups, D'Addario nylon tapewound (black) strings.
Second choice: 2011 Fender American Special Precision bass (long scale), with Rotosound Steve Harris monel flatwound strings.
If I need to play something lower than the E on a 4 string in standard tuning, I use an Ibanez SRA 555 with D'Addario Half Rounds.
And my ten-year-old uses an Ibanez Mikro (short scale) 4 string bass with D'Addario nylon tapewounds. (And this explains my tabbing some One Direction and Miley Cyrus - songs that interest the kid!)
(The first Bass i Ever got, the one i used to write the 200 bass tabs)
