Not enough 104 sigs on a Gibson acoustic at the Grand Ol Oprey museum held the record in my 1991 copy of the book.
 
Re: A Very Unique Bass Item

No Grasshopper has a ton of basses from what I gather, this one is for display only now. He has added a few more since this list was posted. What a great guy, if you have never been to Bass Central, you should definitely go if you are a bass player. It is a musician's music store alot of high end gear.

I never had until now. Holy Crap!! They have a red quilted Spector and a blue quilted Spector that I'd almost kill for.
 
Re: A Very Unique Bass Item

Jolly, they have so much high end stuff, I went there today with my buddy Johnny and took some pics of the inside. i hope to have them posted soon. We also saw Victor Wooten and Sam Ash in Orlando. It was a free clinic, 1 hour of music and 1 hour of questions and then some signings and pics

Thoroughly enjoyed Bass Central and Sam Ash with Victor and his phenomenal drummer and of course my buddy Steve(Bass Medic)!

Steve.....I need the photos of Victor,you,and me and also the ones with Dave LaRue,yourself,and me...

Here's a few photos(I do have quite a few)....

....Steve,Wooten's drummer and me.

Victor Wooten below....Just an ungodly bass player with never ending chops and talent! Wonderful person also,as was the drummer!

Bass shops always make me jealous. Innovation and modern ideas. Walk back to the guitar store acres of pre 1970 designs with fake wear.
