Bass direct has the TGI lengths listed, assume they're the internal measurements: https://www.bassdirect.co.uk/bass_guitar_specialists/TGI_Gig_bag.html The Extreme is £50 if you want something cheap but good.

Just measured my Gator Pro Go Deluxe, looks like it can house 122cm and more with the lower cushion removed. Also measured my Gator Pro Go X (same as the Transit I think) which can just about do 122cm again with the lower cushion still in place. There's a removable bit of padding around the headstock area if you need more space.

For some reason I find the machine heads on this extremely visually appealing. https://i.ebayimg.com/images/g/3GEAAOSwVDNkkWEc/s-l1600.jpg

All the 6x10 and 8x10 cabs I've seen for sale don't fetch much and take an age to shift, bargains compared to the new price for sure but that's the hit you take when you buy a massive heavy cab that very few people can be bothered to transport. Great to leave in a rehearsal room though.

My old genuine Fender copy made of old bits and bobs, nice MIJ neck. It did actually say Fender on the headstock though so doesn't belong here. Actually gigged a fair bit with this, sold it last year.

Not an SX, slightly differen't shape. Definitely seen it before just can't remember where. That red Jazz is definitely a Sire body though. This is basically the sort of thing MDP would be turning out if he could control himself around a chisel.

Looks too good to be true but if you're local it'll be worth checking out: https://www.facebook.com/marketplace/item/193037920033259/?ref=search&referral_code=null&referral_story_type=post&tracking=browse_serp%3A30298d1a-0d8b-45a7-a53e-64c956b5f6ee

Anybody know what factory are these coming from then?

Usually you're contract is with the seller and theirs is with the courier, although this memo doesn't seem to have made it to many online retailers.

Awaiting the headless conversion thread in the build section...

Do you have a link for the gigbag? On the lookout for a cheaper headless 5er as backup and that looks decent. I put the Guyker East clone knobs on mine, looks miles better.

Imagine buying that white electric 12>6 conversion, breaking strings at every gig and taking your pro luthier setup guitar into a local music shop (where only spotty teenagers who know nothing about guitars and can't do setups work remember) to find out what's wrong with it, only to be told "absolutely everything".

Interesting project here, you're quite handy at making stuff IIRC?

Yes I was on the original thread when they first came out. The 1st gen logo is horrible and I'd have no qualms about putting the correct one on myself, certainly wouldn't be buying an entire replacement neck to correct a cosmetic issue which should have been sorted before the basses were even launched.

Should say Sadowsky on it then!

The RSD logo would still be on the headstock so I doubt there'd be any confusion about what it is, plus I doubt Warwick are going to do that for you anyway. Could always ask I guess. To me it's more counterfeit that they sell it as a Sadowsky instead of Rockbass, RSD or whatever yet it doesn't have the Sadowsky logo on there.

Decal here if you fellas want to save some money:

Always quite liked the Prosebass designs, would still quite like a 5 at some point if one turns up. Shame he stopped building as they were a bit ahead of their time IMO, he did a lot of headless variants as well IIRC.

OP has just been on the windup for a while now, stop biting.

I keep everything in my gigbag (Gator Pro Go) and spares in my spare bass gigbag (Gator Pro Go X/Transit), get something with ample pockets/storage options and you can do away with the extra accessories bag. I only gig with a single cable and use 9v adapters with removable plugs to cut down on bulk (TC and Dunlop do 'em), no speaker cables either. I do fit my tablet, preamp, IEM pack and IEMs in there though.

My favourite was the old Kay SG body with some random neck bolted on, made even less sense than that crazy bridge one.
