[quote name='Hello_Dave' date='May 24 2007, 07:40 PM' post='5985'] Im pretty much decided that I'm gonna get one of these, I've heard nothing but praise for them and the one I tried was really nice. I just can't decide which colour I prefer between the Fiesta Red and White. I've only seen the red in real life, anyone know somewhere in Manchester or nearabouts where I can see the white version? Whichever one I get, Im gonna stick a black pickguard on it I hate the pearl on the red and not a massive fan of the tort on white. Im swaying towards red and black at the moment...the fact Im a United supporter may be the reason why lol. Gotta say I prefer the vintage white *with* the tort pickguard... Would love one myself but I reckon it'd spoil you for 34" basses. After all, a Mustang has gotta be easier to play ;-)

I feel the need for a really Fender sounding bass to compliment my Ibanez gear.... The trouble is I like the Precision sound *and* the Jazz sound. For Jazz I love the *growl* and for Precision I love the *deep clank* As to necks I really like the Jazz neck better... Budget would be no more than £600 or so new... I'm considering the Geddy Lee, the Reggie Hamilton, the Jazz 24, I have to say that I like Japan or Korea more than Mexico, but that's because of a bad experience with a really crummy MIM Jazz a while back. Of course, maybe the Fender sound is better from someone elses brand ;-) Any thoughts please...

Thanks for all the info. guys ;-) I'll order that Ibanez hardcase...

Apologies if this has been covered before, but what's the general experience with ordering stuff from Thomann in Germany?

I get my tone contro; from the guitars active EQ and the SansAmp bass drivers contro;s. Seems to work best that way ;-)
