Take your best shot - Dope

Do it to me one more time - Captain & Tenille

Not sure who bought them but @Jabba_the_gut's creations are amazing. See if you can borrow one of them (check the build diaries thread if you haven't seen them)

Not mine - I know nothing about this model other than it's semi hollow. I'm sure that those who know will know. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/185526828639?hash=item2b3242be5f:g:1fwAAOSwrPZi4stc&amdata=enc%3AAQAIAAAA8PW7fpr9%2Br1pn82%2BgX%2Brio9yRBfhVvrhWXWL%2FXWtpeppkgMeRAGyQEQqOEgR23S63%2BjCXPDLfiZq89obobbq2uiO3iQeanZSYkL2BOk1URZuEzb5tpRhZj%2B6jUyvm3BzcGnUvQuHXR569JUeDderYBPN5krOlBYQvZHU%2BJ1%2B6lRldOIu%2FIzUrzEOVcD24C5qEAxcEglUHvQrsUSKFGHQgQ5kpMEZQ48h5t51y1OUvDKg514%2FsuVUADYMzmWvrIUCUfWa9c0cwpAlIO%2BJ6a3VpaU4VnC9yJPr1sbqqNO3c4erw9Bz3nEwu8Y8TwKmpahZOg%3D%3D|tkp%3ABk9SR97torv6YQ

Browsing....and was looking at the Sadowsky Metro Express PJ 5. They have them at DHGate which I believe is a Chinese site - are items like the Chinese made Sadowsky models they sell the real thing or just poor copies? https://www.dhgate.com/product/sell-like-hot-cakes-5-string-bass-guitar/537594367.html?f=bm|GMC|pla|755398248|39890016695|537594367|pla-293946777986|113003004|GB|li13683772583|c|2|&utm_source=pla&utm_medium=GMC&utm_campaign=li13683772583&utm_term=537594367&gclid=CjwKCAjwo7iiBhAEEiwAsIxQEbwF1lj_qgCBo2S1LStLaaIAsa23W2EDz6FDh38ZJhcX6LOUjDnPJhoCY7cQAvD_BwE

Just saw this

Now you need to kill him to limit the rarity of instruments he signed.

I don't have any experience of them but they seemed to be well regarded. Have you tried any of the Ibanez range? Alternatively, with a £2K budget @Andyjr1515 could build you whatever you want (if he isn't already inundated).

Are you thinking of moving?

You know how you keep things - even though you don't need them - in case you ever need them? Ross came to my rescue when I needed a box to send a bass. Not only did he have a box, he had a box that fitted inside that other box. Double protection. A Godsend!! I expected a bit of trouble finding where he lived as I knew he'd moved since I'd last been round there (to pick up my second ever Trace Elliot) - he'd moved about 100 yards. Top, top fella!! He is the type of person that makes this forum so great. Thanks you, sir...

Feeling hot, hot, hot - The Merrymen

As soon as I started reading this I was thinking "Mammoth" - enhanced performance may be the Emperors Clothes though.

@ossyrocks... @ossyrocks...wake up...breakfast is ready. Were you having that dream where all the musicians knew what they were doing and it all fell into place straight away?? Never mind, maybe one day...

Love is like oxygen- The Sweet

I have two currently. Really nice basses which punch well above their price point.

Have a look at the Yamaha range before dismissing that option. I have two BBG5S, that's how impressed I am.

Bridge over troubled water - Simon & Garfunkle

Personally I'd be keeping the fretless with the maple neck and the Ninja black P. Maybe add a J or H to help it kick more bottom.

I can understand why you'd be kicking yourself - amazing little combo. There's one on ebay currently.
