    There is a perceived deficit between Mexican and US/MIJ that I feel is more historical. My 2021 Player Plus Jazz V tells me the gap doesn't really exist like it used to if at all-and I've owned several US made Fenders in the past 🙂

    Is this in reference to a SR5 in particular? I've noticed the used prices of them (pre Stingray Special) has jumped up quite a bit.

    Makes me want to cry into my pillow that this never happened with the 5s 🥹

    Hi there. I get answers re the string spacing on these fluctuate between 18 and 19mm. What do you make yours please?
  5. Terry M.
    What helped me somewhat with nerves when I was first gigging was realising that bright stage lights make the audience more difficult to see.

    @kwmlondon I'm really keen to find out what your decision will be as and when you arrive there. Can I ask why you feel 4s aren't for you anymore?
  7. Terry M.
    I would see what Alan Cringean at ACG Guitars could do for you first. That will probably violate your 1 month max wait criteria though so maybe not...
  8. Terry M.
    I've never heard this before but my goodness it's loaded with truth.

    I know what you mean. My last recording session was at a mate's house in his living room on his MAC using Logic Pro. There was so much intervention from it that a part of me was wondering what I was even doing there! I felt like I was playing second fiddle to the software.
  10. Terry M.
    Really depends. I can't imagine Another Brick in the Wall any other way.

    @kwmlondon what are you thinking so far? 99.99% of the suggestions here lean towards you keeping it. I have a suspicion you'll take that advice but then readdress this again in less than a year? 😁 I would NOT be saying this if you still played 4s ☺️
  12. Terry M.
    This has made my day 🤣🤣🤣
  13. Terry M.
    But remember that if you were in his position you would no longer be interested in 4s 😊
  14. Terry M.
    Also consider this. I know I'm going against the general "keep it" grain here but a bass like that should be in the hands of someone who will use it. There'll be no shortage of takers and you'll forget about it quicker than you think. From an investment point of view it's already worth more than you paid for it so...

    I believe there's "magic" in any bass from ANY era if the user believes there is rather than any intrinsic magic.It's all wood,magnets and screws with some strings attached ultimately.
  16. Terry M.
    This is why I think you need to say goodbye to it personally. Once I made the physical and mental switch to 5s all my 4s had to go but that's just me.

    Ah cool. Keeps things interesting if nothing else. Yes great guys in there but the shown stock isn't a true reflection. There's a bass I sold there on commission recently that's still not marked as sold yet either 😅 Enjoy the Elrick. You in a way echoed my sentiments about the Bart pickups.
  18. Terry M.
    Ah you bought it then in the end? You happy with the light weight? They haven't as yet marked it as sold 😊
  19. Terry M.
    This thread has a title? Stupid me eh?
  20. Terry M.
    Then by this parameter I guess I hate the sound of the high C string. How that belongs on an instrument known for providing low end is beyond me.
  21. Terry M.
    That's hilarious 😂 It's not my area to convince you otherwise so of course just play what makes you happy 👍
  22. Terry M.
    That's a very strong word to describe one extra string 😁 I hope you've never been in a situation where you've been forced to play one or even lost work because you refused. Funnily enough when I started playing I didn't understand the G string,I was like "how is this even bass?" This is probably why even though I can, I don’t play 6 string bass.
  23. Terry M.
    Pickup pole pieces that don't line up with the associated string.
  24. Terry M.
    So all of us basically 🤭

    Been playing bass since 2008 so not sure if I'm qualified to be called a musician yet 😅
