I am not sure about the hardware if it's original or not.”[/indent] It looks a bit like a Jazz Bass, I suppose. Drawn from memory, by a poor draughtsman, in the dark, after too much beer. Check out that lower horn!

I absolutely love my Yamaha RBX200F fretless. Even with the addition of a better bridge and an EMG pickup scored off fleabay, the total cost wasn't much above £100. Back in the 90s, I'd have hated its styling, but now I rather like it. I can't stop playing it, and it's displaced my other basses to the hallway rack.

[quote name='Beer of the Bass' timestamp='1325590287' post='1484691'] I wonder how the A-string would sound going over both pickup halves. [/quote] I've seen more than a few factory five-strings with symmetrical P-type pickups that put the A string over both halves. I've always wondered the same thing about them.
