It has got the Pao Ferro fret board, how do I know you ask. Because I own one hehe.

Wow! thats a lovely bass right there. If I had a spare £1000 or the excess for a trade with a Warwick Corvette $$ I'd be all over this bass haha.

Have a bump on me.

TRADED!!!!

I bought this wonderful bass off mintyfreshdeath about mid summer. Whilst it is a wonderful bass to play, sounds fantastic anywhere you use it and has a real special paint job aswell.
Unfortunately, I can't get back into 4 strings, and much more relaxed with a 5 string.

(reusing some of MFD's pics he pm'ed me, hope ya don't mind)

Currently I'd only be looking for trades (feeler) for the following basses (all 5 string):
A Warwick of some kind, mainly a Streamer (at a push) or Fortress (though not sure if they came in 5 string)
Another Sandberg JM, but this time with 5 strings.

Any feedback is welcome

Well, theres no metal heads on my course (well atleast not in my group) So it is a step away from college in that respect.

Oh we're interested, but lack the funds to purchase such a lovely bass.

Got any trades or price in mind?

I'm currently studying Creative Music and Sound Technology at Leeds Met uni. Its a good course and a good city, not to big and not too small. Don't know anyone that dislikes it here.

mhm, no need to say anything here, I'd just be repeating what everyone before me said.

I'm thinking of asking in PMT if they do set-ups and all that. Since I'd like to lower the action on my bass, and too afraid to try myself haha.

With a bass like that, you should tell the rest of your band to change instruments .
Lovely colour, have a bump on me.

Lovely looking bass. I'd love to have one, but I don't have anything to trade with..... *goes and sulks in the corner*

ooooh Just thought of something else. Maple bodies with maple neck... with no finish. Its just the most boring and lackluster finish you could ever have on a bass lol.

I've never been able to get on with Warwicks or Spectors, everything on them feels to small and bunched up, like the body is tiny and doesn't sit well on my leg. And then the pick-ups are border-line touching the strings is just uncomfortable for my picking hand. They just annoy the life out of me haha. Plus real basses are big

Quite afew Primus songs can be played on a 5 string. Like "My Name is Mud" Which features a wrist killer of a riff on the low B. And as someone else pointed out Limp Bizkit, if you're gonna pick one song by 'em I'd have to say Boiler, use every string equally.

Is this the single cab or is it the combo?

And up for sale........ my MXR M80 distortion/di pedal.

Looking for £80 including p+p (which shouldn't be much)

If ya would like any more info, just ask .

ooh cool, would ya be able to post any pics? Thanks

Is this still up for sale? *crosses fingers*

I'd want to keep at 300w or above really. Though the cab would depend, as I'd shop around first. But any help in giving advise with what is good and stuff would be cool.

I'm considering downsizing my amp, mostly on the weight side of things.

Whilst I love my Trace, it is very big and heavy for me, takes up alot of room and all that.

So, I come here today to ask..... What should I go for?
I've been looking around, and there is always the Mark Bass stuff, but that generally costs a fair bit as does Eden stuff. And Ashdown have their little giant heads, but I wouldn't know what cab to stick 'em with.

ARGH!!! I need help with this problemo.

Thanks guys

Just bought the most lovely Sandberg California from Mintyfresh today. He's a really sound guy, and put up with me for about a week of not having the money hehe.

Thanks man

To your truly

pm'ed!

Oooooh Looks lovely, is that the sparkly gold/yellow paint I see?

I've played one of these in PMT in Leeds, it is one of my fave basses I've ever played and it lookes stunning!
