I dread to think how many marketing emails from ScottsBassLessons you’ve missed out on in the last 15 years 👀 -
Where is my 1983 Sting reissue?
-
I’d be interested in that lol
-
Basically my situation too. Bae money for any of the shiny new stuff, still nice to look 😂
-
Weird that the basses didn't get the redesign that the guitar range got. New colours look great. Although they've done that annoying thing of having the colour on a 4 string model I'd want on the 5 string 😅

Weird layout of foot switches. It's as though they don't want to make it user friendly.

Interesting. Do D'addario make Fender's flatwounds too? I had a set on a 5 string a while back and I was super impressed with them, they were fairly inexpensive too. I wonder what set they were based on... -

Form factor Is going to be off putting for some I think, I love the current Octamizer and the new sounds on the down filter sound excellent, never use an octave up tho. Compressor looks good - the metering looks a really great addition, I’m not quite sure what to make of the EQ, I think with a passive bass it’d probably work really well

Whatever bass you can think of, Sire have made a cheaper copy - and usually decent quality -

It’s a lovely preamp but I wouldn’t say it has a “tubey” sound at all? It’s very hifi IME

I have a Cort. I like its build quality but not its bartolini's I have several Yamaha 5's. Again, love the build quality but pick up's on some are muddy and lack lustre (RBX and BBN. The older BB's are a different ball game) I have no experience of Sadowsky. How would you rate them compared with Lakland 55 or G + L Tribute 2500 ( but outside of my current budget 😕) -
Apparently Spanner Crabs are red and walk both forwards and backwards rather than sideways.

Yep, I believe the Fortress has a reputation for being a tad heavy. 17.5 is slightly on the narrow side. 18-19 is my aiming point however I ask myself 0.5mm is that really a deal breaker ?🤔 I guess I'll have to try and find one and see for myself. -
Looks quite fun - let us know how you get on with it.

Thats ugly. I think ill give it a miss. To be honest, I can't see myself ever buying a bass more expensive than my Euro LX and even that is far too good for someone of my very minimal talents.
