There are likely as many differences between those four guitars as there are between four guitars owned by four different players. sound quality, tuning settings, weight, familiarity even. A friend of mine who plays in a cover band uses a Flying V for the really heavy metal songs as it sounds “meaner” and a Stratocaster for the rest of his sets as it’s lighter.
Carol Kaye said when she did guitar sessions she had to carry six instruments, but when she switched over to bass, she only carried one. The only bass player I ever knew had two: a fretted and an fretless. The bass sound is pretty straightforward.
Heather is a good friend–with a benefit: ethics.

not to mention they’re thinking exactly alike…yes I am a stater of the obvious.
I think Shelly has Guitar Acquisition Syndrome. Nobody needs four bass guitars.

Or it could just be an aesthetics thing.
