    [quote name='NickD' timestamp='1479811251' post='3179397'] Shipping is included. Both my B strings are as they should be, in that they feel and sound just like the other 4 strings. That's running a 120 on the Elwood L5 and a 125 on the Jake. I came to these from a 35 inch scale Lakland, which was the first B string I was really happy with, and they're both at least as good. [/quote] [quote name='bubinga5' timestamp='1479813959' post='3179433'] All the instruments that I've owned.The best B strings have been on a Stingray 5 and a Lakland. I'm not sure why as we all talk about scale lengths and those 2 have different ones. I think it comes down to construction/pickups and strings. A tought B string I think comes down to many factors. My Maruszczyk has just as good a B string as both of those instruments. [/quote] Thanks, that is reassuring.....

    So you guys with the 5 string instruments - hows your B? I've had hit or miss affairs with B strings on Fender type basses and the inability to try before buying worries me..... Also, am I correct in thinking the prices of the stock instruments on the website include shipping to UK?

    I find an unlined board easier to play and you have the added bonus of not having the guitarist pick up your bass in rehearsal, twiddling about at the dusty end and pronouncing "it's bloody easy this bass playing lark!" 😉

    [quote name='deepbass5' timestamp='1477681446' post='3163892'] Andy, I'm guessing you told your wife if you get the motorbike you will reduce the bass collection Gas is great ain't it. [/quote] This ⬆︎ But I didn't count on the weather getting colder!! Thanks for the pics David, would you be open to trade options?
  15. andyonbass
    David, does this have position markers on the top edge of the neck? If so, are they on the pitch or as per a fretted neck? Is this strung E-C still?
  16. andyonbass
    Call me old fashioned but if you're all getting an equal split of the fee it's just plain decency to all muck in surely... With regard to drummers that bash it out at full whack all the time,I see it as a missed opportunity to add dynamics to your sound.

    Met Pat today to do a trade deal. The bass was as good as described and Pat came across as a thoroughly nice chap! I would have no hesitation in recommending him for any future transactions.
  22. andyonbass

    Great gig last night with it but I'm definitely more comfortable with a Jazz type 5 string......
