  1. Thanks for the response. I'll go online and see if I can dig anything out. My fretting hand is fussy with regards to radii,prefers flat or close to it.
  2. Please forgive my ignorance but I know nothing about Status necks. Do you happen to know the fretboard radius measurement on them? What's the story with sticking them on Stingrays,I've seen it before and genuinely curious 🙂
  3. I would say it's not priced too cheaply for a US model. It's in the correct ballpark based on other examples I've seen.
  4. Interestingly I was browsing in Anderton's just today and tried a few basses. Long story short I couldn't wait to get back home to play the gear I already own. Basically I agree with you 👍
  5. Oh really? I had no idea. That's a shame...😪
  6. I sent you a link to a Japanese Fender currently in stock at Guitar Guitar to give an indication of price compared to a US made example.
  7. https://www.guitarguitar.co.uk/product/250930448791008--fender-made-in-japan-traditional-late-60s-jazz-bass-3-colour-su
  8. Hmm not sure the Chelsea clientele would agree...
  9. Incredible isn't it? Imagine paying more for a brand new vehicle that's been dented and scuffed from the factory (for example) 😊
  10. EBMM producing a wider necked Stingray 5 complete with 19mm bridge string spacing. Oh and theres not enough maple fretboard on natural bodied basses (black pickguard optional) to my liking.
  11. This is such an amazing colour. Shame it's not a 5 string. When you say you "needed a 4 string" for a specific gig was it a visual thing and/or part of a tribute act? Just curious 😊
  12. It's @bassjim that needs convincing 🙂
  13. Put your offer back in my friend. As @Freddi375 has stated this is all the way American. I've had one.
  14. PM sent.
  15. The Gallery in Camden north west London. Does it have to be west London specifically?
  16. Thanks for doing that. G to B looks like 76mm from the shots. And the nut width also please? I'm expecting that to be about 46mm?
  17. Jimmy don't shout at me but can you please measure the overall distance between the B and G strings down by the bridge saddles? 😉 Oh and the nut width please.
  18. So is it volume pan and bass and treble controls? Is there a push-pull brightness feature as I've seen on some Overwaters?
  19. Signature sound I would have to say no as none of my 4 basses sound the same. With regards to this specific question it has to be my Broadneck Warwick Thumb 5 no matter which strings or amp it goes through. I had to "learn" it's ergonomic profile however but the sound is totally worth it to my ears.
  20. Ok cool. Whenever you have time thanks 👍
  21. Scale length please?
  22. The black active 5 string that @Linus27 is maybe considering? Not to rain on this thread but other people's opinions (mine included) generally don't help. The real solution is to try for one's self 😊
  23. This is why I always move on Stingray 5s whenever I get one. Breaks my heart as I find them amazing apart from the string spacing.
  24. Having owned both this active Affinty 5 string and Sire 5 strings in the past I would say the string spacing on both brands are pretty much identical.
  25. Are you referring to the active version of Squier Affinity mentioned on here or the older passive version? I ask because before purchasing my active version I tried 3 different ones to see if it was a fluke and I found them all equally excellent. I'm factoring in price-point here also.
