  1. I have both Fender and Lakland, and I'm in the Lakland camp. Yes it doesn't sound much different in a band context but it was the neck that won it for me. Most comfortable neck I've played on and to think it won me over a US MTD.

    Was it to do with neck radius? I was surprised at just how thick the necks are, definitely not the most playable of beasts.

    Partly. I found the neck just a tad bit wider than my preferred. It was mostly because of the tone, it sounds good on some songs but didn't quite worked out on some ([b]for me anyway! don't shoot me for this![/b]) and the size of it as well. I'm only little!

    It was a blind purchase anyway so I traded it. Looking at some Sterlings at the moment. It might work out this time!

    That is what my black SR5 sounds like, the bass in the clip being a Sterling it has a pickup selector and the ceramic pickup like some SR5s (1993-2007ish?), she is an untameable beast but what a beast she is :lol:

    I should've gone for a Sterling on my first Musicman purchase. I never really got on with my Stingray sadly.

  4. Finger player here. I lean towards finger playing mainly because I have an incredibly weak grip. So I tend to drop off picks on the middle of the song. But I'm still persevering though as I find it easier to play some songs using a pick. And mainly because I try to copy Bobby Vega style. :lol:

    So yeah. Just give it a try. Another technique in the bag. :)
