I was hooked from the start, but that bridge has made it really outstanding.

I'm not too keen on the the control cover, it looks a bit loose. Better than I could do, but I wouldn't want to buy something like that.

[quote name='PeteHantzios' timestamp='1452857667' post='2954104'] The neck on these, is for me the most comfortable one fender has ever produced. [/quote] The spacing is more like a Stingray than the usual Fender, I think it's about 17.5mm rather than the usual fender which I think is 19my. Really nice bass, can't believe it's going for that price.

Sorry for resurrecting an old thread, my MM5 has two Nordstrand pickups it was originally a single pickup, and a John East Pre, it is a lot nicer (imo) than it was originally. I quite recently bought a TM5, and I love the bass, I really like the pickups, but the pre-amp isn't doing it for me, so I'm going for a John East, just deciding what will work best before buying one. I'd like the new Uni-pre, I just want to make sure it will physically fit, if not I'm sure a J-retro will do the job.

I'm selling my Sadowsky DI box as I only have one passive bass left and it doesn't get much use. It's been around the block, so it has some marks, but it's working perfectly. It has velcro on the bottom at the moment, but I'm sure I can find feet for it. £100 posted in the UK. I will add some photos when I get home this evening. I would prefer the cash, but I'm always after decent effects. I'd really like an EBS MicroBass (with money your way) as I've started doing in ear gigs, and I'd like to keep the EBS sound.

Great value bass, 3 band eq with an awesome slap tone. Think Stingray on a budget. It's string through, recently restrung with normal D'addario 45-130, so no worries about string length. Easily accessible truss rod adjuster, like a stingray. 3 coil pickup, though the centre is a dummy so you can have noiseless single coil tones. I have Schaller strap locks on it and it will come with the strap parts too, along with the original strap buttons/end-pins whatever they're called. It's pretty old and it's been gigged a lot, so it is far from immaculate, but it is a nice playing great sounding bass. Great cheap gigging bass, or backup.

I've just bought Sandberg TM5, so it's time to thin the herd a little. I'm selling my Fender made in China 5 string Jazz bass, these are not being made any more, but they were great basses. This one has Hipshot machine heads, Hipshot string retainers, a custom Tort scratch plate (by the Bass Doc), Fender Roscoe Beck pickups and a custom loom. It has two volume knobs, and a switch for each pickup giving series, parallel and single coil options. I didn't add a tone knob as I've always used it with a Sadowsky pre-amp/di box which I will add in for another £100. It comes with the original scratch plate and pickups.

Just bought a Sandberg TM5 from Sean, posted next day delivery, and the bass is amazing. Great guy to deal with.

Modern Player Jazz 5 bits

I've replaced a lot of the parts on my MP5 so I have the originals (and some extra machine heads) for sale or trade. Pickups £20 Black scratchplate £10 Machine heads £10 Squier (I think) 4+1 machine heads £10 The Squier machine heads look much better than the MP ones, but I went with Hipshot in the end. All including UK postage, happy to consider trades.

I've been considering one of these for ages, I have a stingrays 5, and a modern player jazz 5 (with roscoe beck pups) and there's things I like about both of them, but neither is exactly what I want. The best things about both of them seem to be almagated in the TM5, but I've never tried one. Has anyone tried one, or even better has anyone compared one to a stingray? I know the best thing would be to try one, but I don't know of any in Edinburgh, so I need to decide if it's worth the trip to somewhere that has one to try. Any help or advice would be appreciated.
