If we're on the topic of ones that got away, this is the only pic I have of my old rig that got stolen.
I used to have a couple of old MIJ Tokais too: a Hard Puncher P-bass type with a cherry sunburst flame maple cap. It was my first real instrument and was great bought it new in 1985 or so.
Used to have a fretless Jazz sound too, the Jaco bass, and a Squier JV P-Bass.
