No, because I’ve struggled with it generally. I’ve always wanted one since I started playing, but the neck and weight of it has put me off. Don’t get me wrong, it’s a lovely example, but I’m now at an age where I don’t really want to be fighting it for 2+ hours while gigging it.

Thinking of moving it on if anyone is interested…. 😂

Phew! To be fair I had no idea about these limited models or their price point. I kind of shrugged off the fact that it came with a soft case as I just assumed the previous owner preferred it over a hard case. One thing I will say about it is that it is heavy, (10lb) - it was listed as alder, but it’s heavier than any jazz bass I’ve owned. I’ve also replaced the pickup (weak G output, as per…) with a Nordstrand MM4.2.

I bought it used earlier this year from Bass Bros. Candy Apple Red, 2eq, soft case, 2010 model…: £1500 😬

I think I have one of these limited edition ones, and given what you’ve said about them, I may well have paid over the odds for it….🥺

Ahh mate you’re a star! I will definitely be in touch (after this weekend…. 😎) Really kind of you Matt. 😁

Just spotted a Schecter P5 on Rich Tone’s website, these have a 35in scale so that’s definitely one to add to the list.

Thank you guys, I should add that weight is also a consideration. I bought a full fat US stingray back in March (4 string) and apart from realising ‘rays aren’t really for me, the thing is heavy, so it will probably end up in the for sale section in order to fund something P/5/tasty.

Morning all, I’m interested in your opinions/experiences of 5er Ps, particularly Fender or Sire. I’ve found myself drawn back to 5ers since picking up an RB Streamer last year, but I’m after something a bit more traditional looking. My main concern with 5 string Ps is the B string - do they have a certain amount of clarity or have you found them to be a bit on the wooly side? Fanx. 😊

Jaw droppingly good albums for bass players to hear

Jamiroquai - The Return of The Space Cowboy. Stuart Zender is magical on this, easily my favourite Jamiroquai album. All killer, no filler. -
Help me! 4ohm cab or 8ohm cab to use as an ext cab for a Markbass combo?

The guitarist impressed me the most. Plays like the secret love child of Nile Rogers and Edward Van Halen… 😁

High Fade last night @ Strings Bar and Venue, I.O.W. Ridiculously good. So much so that I’m off to sell all my gear in the For Sale forum. Bastards. 😁

@Happy Jack same day but 2 years after you. 😎

It’s a 1st gen Squier Affinity so I can’t imagine it has something as fancy as a compound radius, but thank you for the heads up. 😊
