Oscar South Posted July 21, 2008 Share Posted July 21, 2008 I really want to get one of these for uni next year, 40 min walk to the music campus every day and most uni peoples cars are too small to fit a 35" bass in the boot, plus carrying a hefty 5 string and pedalboard when I get stuck walking is a bit of a task in itself. Does anyone know where to get hold of one? I know you could get them from Sound Control, can you get them from whoever took over? Anyone know any independent dealers? Cheers, Oscar.

Then try a search on "headless bass" - if a 4-string will do you, I'd be inclined to look at the Hohner Jacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave_bass5 Posted July 22, 2008 Share Posted July 22, 2008 (edited) I have used Music Yo in the past and ended up with two XT-25's, both for nothing :-). I really liked them. very comfortable to play and my first 5 string. I wish i had kept one of them now. I also have one of the guitar shaped bass's but im not sure if they still do those. you can see it in my Avatar on the left.

Oscar South Posted July 30, 2008 Author Share Posted July 30, 2008 Bought Jakes, I wasn't expecting wonders after hearing a few peoples comments but this bass sounds brilliant! Can't get the setup as nice as my TRB but sound wise it isn't too far behind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
