Bonin-in-the boneyard Posted Saturday at 17:40 Author Posted Saturday at 17:40 Thanks they look nice but bass direct only have the 5 string Quote
JohnR Posted Saturday at 19:21 Posted Saturday at 19:21 I bought mine from Bass Direct several years ago. They might be able to order one in. I customised mine beyond recognition with a Mike Pope preamp, upgraded Bartolini pickups and Hipshot hardware. I also took a router to it and changed the pickup positions and installed Luminlay dot markers on the fingerboard and side of the neck. You wouldn't recognise it as the same bass. 1 Quote
uk_lefty Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago Warwick do a 6 string lefty, I think I've seen one at the bass gallery (fretless) and one on Thomann. I think ESP also do one but not sure. No idea on quality but I bet the Warwick is decent. The only six string I've had was a Brice years ago... I think if you're going six string you have to spend the money to get a decent instrument, it's harder to get round any cheaper bits like uncomfortable neck profile, fingerboard shape, bad bridge... Etc. in my opinion. Quote
