Thank you all for the replies quick photo

Hi, I just bought a Lakland 55-02 Skyline to join my USA Stingray 5 which I’ve had for around 15 years. Pretty impressed. Getting used to the different string spacing. I know quite a few of you have both. Interested to know your thoughts. Thanks
-
Nice bass. Is the string spacing 16mm? -
Also Johnny Hammond check out Gears album

Sad day. Glasgow store used to be Sound Control where I bought a musicman stingray. Which I still have -
this is amazing

So sorry to hear this, An amazing inventive bassist. Love his work with Chaka, especially Naughty album. Had the privilege to see him 3 times in concert; with Mike Stern at Ronnie Scotts around 2015 and twice in 1993 at the New Morning in Paris with Steve Khan (with Steve Gadd) and with Tania Maria (with Dave Weckl). Both mesmerising performances. A true giant

Also his work with Marvin Gaye on I Want You album is really good.

I’m in exactly the same position. Got a stingray that I bought new in 1989. It’s the only 4 string I still own. Switched to 5 years ago. Don’t need the money but feel guilty it’s not being used. That said, it was a dream bass in the display window in sound control that I promised myself to get if I finished completing a qualification at the time

Thinking about getting a 2nd hand Fender Jazz 5 string (Mex or USA). But wary of potential floppy B string issues. Does anyone have one, if so how do you find the B string? Note, already have SR5 and Ken Smith 5. But curious to try 19mm 5 string

This is a great pick sound and playing too. Check track 5. Flats?

Bygone music/bass shops you were fond of?

obi 2 kenobi replied to Kiwi's topic in Graphite neck - ordering
Hi, do you know if the classic 5 measurements match to a SR5? Do they have the same number of frets? Thanks -
Me too

Calling all graphite neck enthusiasts!
obi 2 kenobi replied to Kiwi's topic in Graphite neck - ordering
Definitely interested in a SR4 or SR5 neck. Had a status SR4 years ago which I sold on this forum. But would need to be a complete headstock match to stingray like Status made to tempt me. -
On a side note, first saw Doug in 1987 at the Venue (?) in Edinburgh with Adrian Sherwood. Tiny place. Was in the front row facing Doug who had 4 and 5 string Spectors, a Tune bass and about 20 effects pedals. Had a wee chat with him a few years later at a Tackhead gig in Glasgow. Really nice guy. Scathing about George Clinton I recall

I thought it was Charlie’s call. He wanted a jazzer and Daryl had played with Miles which sealed the deal on its own
