I have been going over this for ages now, maybe it's time to get on with it.
I own 2 Mike Lull basses, a V5 and a PJ5. Both are magnificent 5 string renditions of classic tone monsters.
The thing is I am more a J than a P guy, so I tend to use my V5 most of the time and my PJ5 is left behind way too often..... it needs to be cherised.......
Anyone own a 5 string (passive or with good passive option) or even 4 string JB type bass and looking for a Mike Lull PJ5?
Perhaps we can trade....... perhaps
Trade value would be around €1400-1500 or £1150-1200 and I am not looking to spend money on a trade (would actually prefer to trade down a little as the JB will be pretty much a backup to my V5).
UPDATE: To answer a question that someone raised, to sell outright I would be looking at £1300,-. + shipping Not a bad price. Am willing to take a lower trade value... see above.
What springs to mind?
Lulls of course, but also G&L JBs, Lakland DJs, Shukers maybe, a good 4 string Fender Jazz USA, what else u got? Would perhaps entertain the thought of going for a Stingray (my old love), but would prefer a Classic 5 then, or even a Fender Roscoe Beck, just because they're awesome. And you can always try me with whatever else you think I might like.
Strong preference to passive and 35" scale for 5 string.
