Do you ever feel sorry for guitar players ....

Do you ever feel sorry for guitar players because the bass player has a better looking instrument (i.e. girlfriend)?   Everyone has a Les Paul or Fender Strat - but an Alembic Bass --------> we have the edge on this one  )

I've seen some VERY sexy Alembic guitars too!
 
FYI the most popular Bass in history and still the best selling is the Fender Jazz.  Everybody I know has or has had one (or several) at some time.

Yep some very sexy ones. Stephen I think it's an interesting point you make. However,if you are holding the guitar that gives you the sound you want you won't be remotely affected that the bass player has a beautiful instrument. Only if he can't play   :-)
 
I think if I turned up at a gig with my dragon magic guitar I'd still have the visual edge over quite a few alembic basses.
