My Squiers.
The brown one is a standard unmodified Jazz from Maccari's, which just sounds brilliant and growly and plays great. Better than every other £200 bass I tried.
The black one is fretless, and has flatwounds on it. It has Seymour Duncan vintage pickups and genuine Fender controls and jackplate, to go with the nice new pearl pickguard. I changed the wiring and controls because it originally had a stacked volume and two tones which really didn't work, so now it has the standard two volumes and one tone, like the fretted one.
I also have a short scale Danelectro I bought off this very thread, and a Hohner Steinberger cricket bat with drop D thing and active electronics, which is awful but ace at the same time.
