Dread Bass

my rick turner electroline is very light

super mario theme is fun to play

add a matching black headstock then thats what i am after. like you i was never a fan of the five string but the more i looked at it the more i liked it. I now have a five string fretless mm black body, black scratch plate with a pau ferro fingerboard and im in love with it.

yeah just ordered it from amazon for £12.99

that was great you can get this cocert on dvd im going on amazon for a look now

I think that is one of the best pickup combos and with the aguilar preamp i bet it just sounds unreal.

Great wood as well the SEI guys are genius

that is a fine bass indeed.

I just bought my musicman tho and no matter how fine that bass is i just cant get along with headless basses.

Fingers.

I prefer the sound and the rare times i cudnt get the sound i wanted i use a light double thumb type technique and that has always worked fine.

It would be a good idea for us lefties to start a lefty lookout club. So everytime somone finds out about a good deal or sees a bass for sale they post to let all the others no.

what do you think?

rush- yyz

im a lefty and play lefty.

Cool.

im very excited.

going to pick it up tomorrow

so where does the 5 string musicman stand?

I think it has the best parts of both basses.

What do you guys reckon?

yeah full stop I will ask him full stop Guess i got over excited full stop

here is some to make up

Not sure if it is that one as i cant get your link to work.

by fb do you mean feedback? cause the seller for my one had 100% from like 90 transactions.

it is black with a black scratchplate and has an unlined, rosewood fingerboard if that helps.

I just bought a second hand but in mint condition musicman five string left handed with a birdseye maple neck on ebay for 600 quid not bad eh

pics to follow

grea.t no probs

good description, fast reply, well packaged

perfect transaction really

thanks

bump with price added

five string mm stingray black with black scratchplate and a matching black headstock maple fb

mine has broke. had it for six months barely used it cause i went off effects went back to play with it the other day and the up switch wont work im going to take it back

tbh i was quite disappointed wit it in general. it was my second zoom product and they have both died in a very short time.

jus my opinion

andrew

pmd you dazco

It says it all that there are more people on here that r left handed but have learned to play right handed because of the difficulty of getting basses. its a shame and i often wish i had learned right handed but at least it looks different im glad i learned lh because if i was right handed i would be broke all the time and up to my eyes in basses.

bump bump

I am left handed and play left handed basses.

I too used to get very frustrated with this but i have learned that finding your ideal bass is a lot more rewarding because you have to work for it. I am proud of my collection as i have battled hard to find it i feel like i have some very unique basses.

what does wind me up is the upcharge that companies charge. i think spector charges like ten or fifteen per cent on lefty models which is sick if you are already paying a fortune. the result is i avoid spectors.

Fender are another one and there policy on jazz basses does my head in they sell mex lh jazzes, japan lh jazzes american deluxe jazz basses but the wont make a regular american jazz left handed even tho they will do a p bass american grrr result i wont buy fender products.

I check ebay every day i search the internet all the time and if i see something i want at a good price i buy it i tend to buy it second hand that way if i dont like it i can gey my money back easier.

heres a tip leftybass.com dont no if you have seen it. if i saw my dream bass on there i would be willing to go try it out and get it even if it meant traveling in europe.
