  1. Or, you send your bass to BD and get mine a bit cheaper
  2. I’m going to say 47-48mm - only because I really couldn’t see the tape measure clearly (it’s fine, but my eyes arnt
  3. Brand new red/brown and black inside Levys made in Canada leather strap. Maximun length - 52inch/132cm £25 including postage.
  4. Bought last year and never used as I'm going short/medium scale. Comes with padded gig bag. Tradewise I might be interested in an electric upright bass. Here's what it says on t'internet. Ibanez EWB205WNE-NT 5-string electro-acoustic bass guitar General This 5-string electro-acoustic bass guitar belongs to the Exotic Wood series by Ibanez and combines beauty with craftsmanship. As the bass guitars from the EWB series have a scale length of 34 inches, they have a very clear articulation and sound. Ibanez EWB205WNE-NT 5-string electro-acoustic bass guitar This Ibanez 5-string bass guitar sounds great acoustically, but this instrument will really come into its own when you amplify it. The EWB205WNE has a natural, high-gloss finish and is equipped with a Fishman Sonicore pickup and an Ibanez SRTc preamplifier. This preamp has a chorus function, a built-in tuner, phase reverse, volume control and a 3-band equalizer (bass, treble, mids), which gives you full control over your bass sound! With just one press of the button you can get that nice chorus sound and with the anti-feedback control you can play the highest notes really loudly without suffering from any feedback. Finish The body of the EWB20WNE-NT electro-acoustic bass guitar is completely made of cordia, a Mexican wood type that resembles rosewood but is slightly heavier. This results in a very high tone quality. The wood also has more shades of green and gray. Ibanez's guitar builders selected mahogany for the neck of this guitar and rosewood for the bridge. Its beautiful looks are completed with a nice pearloid inlay on the fretboard, an abalone rosette, die-cast, chrome-plated tuners and, of course, a high-gloss natural finish. You can quickly connect the 5-string Ibanez Exotic Wood bass guitar to a PA setup thanks to a balanced XLR output, that you can find next to the standard 6.35mm jack output. If you need more than four strings, this high-quality bass guitar with a very affordable price, is the perfect instrument for you! top, back and sides: cordia bridge: rosewood colour: Natural High Gloss neck: mahogany fretboard: rosewood rosette: abalone inlay fretboard: pearloid string nut and saddle: Ibanez Ivorex II number of frets: 22 fretboard radius: 400 mm scale length: 34 inches (864 mm) bridge pins: black plastic tuners: chrome-plated, die-cast neck construction: set-in electronics: Fishman Sonicore pickup preamplifier: Ibanez SRTc preamp built-in tuning device Outputs: 1x 6.35mm jack 1x XLR balanced
  5. It is pretty gorgeous, isn’t it.
  6. I think it's called Sea Foam Green
  7. I bought an EHB1005SMS last week and didn't have any of those issues at all (though mine was an ex-demo one, so things may have been sorted in the shop). I did do one mod though. Lowendlobster on Youtube moved one connection on the active preamp (takes less than 5 seconds) and that gives the Bartolinis more bite (well worth doing). He also swapped the pickups for Aguilar DCBD4's, but as they are about £300 I'll give that a miss. I also have put some fluorescent tape (using a hole punch) over the side markers as they are so small they blend into the roasted maple neck and are almost unseeable. I absolutely love the short scale fan frets and, once the connection mod is done, would happily have another of these basses.

  10. Wonderful basses. I've had two Korean and one German one and regret selling them. I wish you were in the UK (to avoid customs duties etc) GLWTS
  11. Oh, I'd love a 5 string bass like that
  12. I've got two 5 string Jakes and am desperate to buy back one I stupidly sold (the person who has it now knows this - hint hint) - I think that says it all.
  13. I used to have a Lamborghini green one of these. Wonderful basses. GLWTS.
  14. What’s it like tuned to a low B instead? Is the B string playable?
  15. Whats the scale length of this please? More electric bass or actual double bass?
  16. Totally agree. I think you should buy it
  17. I play with both (well, a thumb pick or fingers or both). If I had my forearm where everyone else does then I was playing over the 19th fret. A friend of mine (only 6 feet tall) has played it and his hand and forearm are exactly where you'd want to be. I had a Jackson David Ellefson and that was the same. I'm guessing all T'bird style basses will have this issue (or should I say, all very tall bass players will have this issue with T'bird style basses).
  18. Bought last month. Absolutely gorgeous (totally changed my mind about relic'd instruments), but, as much as I love it, it's wrong for me. I'm 6 feet 7 tall and where my right arm hangs/plays is behind where the wear is (ie. on normal sized people) and right on the sharp corner 4.29 Kg = 9.46 lbs Back at the Bass Gallery
  19. I used to have the 5 string version of this. Absolutely wonderful bass. Wish I'd never sold it (along with the two Korean 5 stringers I also sold). You've got me thinking I should buy another 5 string one they are so good.
  20. I bought this last month from Italy and absolutely love it. But I've just got some rather large unexpected bills, so it has to go to pay for them I'm selling it for what I paid for it, but without all the import duties (which will save you quite a bit). I've copied and pasted the original advert.
  21. All at once rather than individual: Ibanez EWB205WNE-NT 1202 Maruszczyk Jake P/MM V Alusonic Django Supreme 5 Rickenbacker 4003 SW-5 Sandberg Forty Eight 5 Michael Poller DB-5
  22. OK, the second expensive bass (that I can't afford) in as many weeks, but sometimes a man's got to do etc. etc. etc Anyway, looking on the Bass Gallery's website and this little beauty popped up. I've been after a 5 string T'bird style bass for ages, but the Gibson version was 'just' the studio version and weighed too much. Even though everyone says that the Epiphone pro V is wonderful, I know I'd always be lusting after the 'real thing'. I bought the Jackson Dave Ellefson T'bird but it was like the Epi, I knew I wanted something 'more', so sold that. I don't think I could ask for more with the Sandberg. Beautifully balanced, not overweight, and even though I'm not a fan of reliced instruments, it just looks 'right'. I'm yet to play it through an amp at volume but I can't wait.
