I was looking at Bills post and realized many of you seem to leave your Balls out. I've always kept mine neatly tucked away where they belong. However, with the addition of the 30th, I wonder if I shouldn't be more of an exhibitionist.

I leave mine out. No reason to keep them hidden away in their stuffy cases. They are much happier roaming free 'round the home.

:DWhile this comes from a dark side guitar player, who likes to read the Bass post,
I currently have 4 Balls and generally keep them neatly tucked away, I might keep one out on a stand if that is the one I am practicing with, but I do lik to display my Balls

My uniball is on a stand, on a couch, or in my loving arms at all times.

Unless being transferred to the realm of another, in which case I use the case in case someone were to case up my uncased bass.

Nope, in thier cases and hidden in the closet.
I don't want to give any prowlers a reason to come into my house, you can't see any of my musical gear.
And with 13 basses, I certainly don't need strings going dead faster.

That little info booklet that came hanging from my tuner on my new Stingray, says when I'm not using my bass, to keep it in the case :)

Mine are in The Bass Closet. The Bass Closet is deep and mysterious. Within the confines of the bass closet, a few are actually in cases.

Three are in a Rockstand. One or two are in stands inside the closet.

Generally, I always have two out to play. When I want to grab a bass, I want to do it immediately.

My Bongo is always leaning next to my amp so I can grab it and play whenever I want.

I love to freeball, but this is not always advisable with young children in the house.

Ah same here man...usually one out on a stand and the other cased. The stand is usually well out of the reach of the now fast crawling wee bairn - althought she as taste and prefers the Dargie if its out. :D

Mine's always in the case.
I'm too afraid something will happen to it.
I'd love to have it out so I can constantly admire it. I just peep into the case to do so instead. :)
