I'd stick with the Fenders personally, i can't quite see whats to be gained by spending the amount a sadowsky(or other) costs, for what is essentially a copy, and the Fenders keep their value. Besides with the ones you have i cant think why you'd want to change them, i still regret selling my '79. lol

[quote name='CHRISDABASS' post='460477' date='Apr 12 2009, 11:50 AM']Im not saying they're not well made, just that they didnt feel right (for me) And the way that the beautiful finish was destroyed on a few of them was plain wrong (again in my opinion) If im gonna have a beaten up bass i want it to at least have happened naturally threw heavy use/gigging etc other wise its like buying an expensive pair of jeans that already have holes in them (how old do i sound now! dam it!) lol [/quote] I have to agree with you on the relics, i find the whole idea absurd, as someone pointed out on another thread, you wouldn't pay extra for (or probably wouldn't even consider buying ) a car with dents and scratches like that! And ditto with the jeans. lol

I've got a ken taylor 5 string, and its bloody brilliant bass, only thing for me is i find the body a bit cramped, with two MM pickups on there and a 24 fret neck, to this end i'd swap for a california JM5 if i had the chance, as i guess i'm more used to traditional Fender shaped basses than more modern styled ones. In terms of sound and build quality they can't be faulted though in my book.

Sure i cant interest you in a trade, could always Bump the 5 string off afterwards. lol -
[quote name='martthebass' post='442265' date='Mar 23 2009, 10:36 AM']Hmmm...I can see the Market is a bit flooded with rays and precisions at the mo so I'll give this one last bump before shelving the idea for a while.[/quote] Would a Sandberg ken taylor 5 string be of any interest?

[quote name='OutToPlayJazz' post='441767' date='Mar 22 2009, 02:55 PM']I'd just like to say here that Nick's basses are always absolutely pristine. I've had two off him in the last year or so & both looked brand new, like they'd come straight out of the box. Buy with confidence [/quote] Definitely seconded there!

[quote name='foxthebiker' post='441764' date='Mar 22 2009, 02:48 PM']Yes, I did! Seriously though, I have been playing a bit down in Devon, where most of them are and I need to thin the crop as I haven't played down there for a while and could do with the cash.....for some other gear.....[/quote] Dare i ask how many there are, or will the sudden build up of GAS kill me? hehe

Did you have a vault of Precisions i missed when i came for the '57? lol If only i had the loot!

Sounds right to me, the guitar is very "busy" so a reasonably laid back bass part like that fits in very nicely i think.

The Jap P is going too? Found something else that took your fancy?

No option for Sandberg?

[quote name='bigjohn' post='412259' date='Feb 17 2009, 05:31 PM']I want one of these... And one of these... [/quote] What is that amp? I've never seen an Ampeg like that before.
