Nothing wrong with my playing technique. The 5 strings (on the ones I have seen) have been off center, with ample space on the B. Construction or design flaw.

If you go for a newer 18v 5-string check how close the G is to the fingerboard edge. And you can’t loosen the bolts and yank the neck!

Great looking bass Loudspeaker. If I can sell my Sadowskys I’m considering getting a Django 5!

The body is aluminum, hollowed out in places, with a carbon fiber cover. The front is an effect to look like flame.

I’ve been curious for a while. Certainly sounds like they deliver the goods!

Their cabs are very unique! Does it sound good?

I just took delivery of my Masterbuilt Alusonic J-Supreme. These are outstanding basses and definitely worth checking out! It has a great modern hifi sound and doesn’t need lots of tweaking with the 3 band eq. You guys have the luxury of going to Bass Direct to check them out, but I took a chance and totally relied on many discussions with Polly the owner of Alusonic to get the custom spec I needed. I’m going to sell my Sadowskys to finance another!

I’ve played many new 5 string Stingrays and a few had string alignment issues, G too close to the edge. And the old trick of loosening neck bolts and pulling the neck didn’t work as there was zero movement in the neck pocket. Not an issue with 4 stringers.

I have a Metroline Will Lee 5 and also rate this as the best ‘jazz’ I’ve owned. Build quality cannot be improved upon. Being built at Warwick it has invisible fret ends. You don’t get that on the NYC’s.

I can help you out. PM me

Perfect! Thanks Luke

In other words, how deep does the neck sit into the body 🙂

Depth from the surface. I need to rout the neck pocket. I’m not referring to length or width. Thanks Luke

Longshot, but I’m building a body for a fellow BC member and need to determine the neck pocket depth. Can anyone help? thanks!
