    I have some idea of Sambrook's taste in instruments, and this has confirmed my desire for a Portamento. Thanks

    Mikros are good but mine buzzes, don't know why. I need to sort it out and flog it.

    [quote name='oggiesnr' timestamp='1483597930' post='3208509'] Did you use a standard set of strings for this as this looks like an option? I play a lot of UK folk so G and D major (plus related minors) are the main keys and I like the option of the low D. On the other hand I rarely go below there. Steve [/quote] I did, but I can't remember what they were, sorry.

    Interesting... I'd be interested in that, if I was closer.

    [quote name='Paul S' timestamp='1483347970' post='3206306'] They pretty much are - also could be considered variants of the B2 series. B bass bridge is different, pickups vary according to the model but, essentially, they are same meat different gravy. That is what interests me! [/quote] :lightbulb: Sounds interesting. I am trying to remember who I sold my B 5 to...

    When I played fives, I tuned a tone below E-C (so DGCFBb). I found the low D useful but low B not helpful with what we were playing.

    When I played fives I tuned a tone down from EADGC, so DGCFBb. It gave me an open low D which was about as low as I wanted to go (low B is just too deep for most things, IMO), and some extra range above. Worth a look.

    Now if that had been a fretless... ah well. Good luck with your sale

    I bought some strings from Nick - my third trade with him, which tells you what you need to know. No surprise that all went well, and I am a happy camper. Thanks Nick

    My reboarded fretless BEX 4 is my go-to bass.

    [quote name='bigsmokebass' timestamp='1483315196' post='3206202'] Always loved the look of these basses but never been available when I've had the money. Sadly same again now What's the active feature (9v battery) for? [/quote] Piezo in the bridge. Preamp on the upper bout. ... and beaten to it by our man from Leeds
  22. alyctes
    Not a relic fan, personally. Other than that it looks nice
  23. alyctes
    I thought they were headed and headless versions of the same design... I will be interested to hear.
  24. alyctes
    What Bassassin said. But also, the Yamaha is passive. That may suit you better, or not.

    Seems to have switched hands
