The Yita ones are well respected around these parts, Geoff 'Discover Double Bass' Chalmers made mine sing at the bash and Jake Newman bought one as his backup for West End gigs after trying mine too.

If fender released the one Flea uses but in a five string version I'd buy one. the bits are already there on the shelf other than the pickup!

EVERY T-Bird and Ric I've tried sent it's head to the floor as soon as I took my left hand away, I don't want to drill holes, change my strap, play with a pick only, or wrap the strap over the body, as for strap buttons on the neck plate I'd rather deal with neck dive than a bass tipping forwards all the time! I get gas for T-birds and Rics every few years (less since going all five strings), a quick blast on one in a shop normally sorts me out for a few years

I swap mid set between the Ray 5s and my Fender Jazz V these days without noticing, a few years with a double bass is the answer to worrying about string spacing and scale lengths etc!

Jazz and audience in the same paragraph?

It's only a matter of time before you get a ceramic Stingray five Jose Ceramic sting. Series position sting. Fat neck that you like.

There's a Thin Lizzy and a Judas priest pun there surely?

[quote name='ezbass' timestamp='1496152780' post='3309156'] It appears that the queen of bass face is appearing with her sisters tonight. Yep, Haim are amongst the guests; goodo! [/quote] Looking forward to it.

That's still sat on a 1x10 without any overhang either.

Yes weighs nothing really, feels like an empty box!

[quote name='Hoffbass' timestamp='1496014914' post='3308147'] This looks way better than a standard Stingray 5 with elongated pickguard .I just wish they make the classic 5 with HS configuration.And congratulation!!This is one the best looking vintage basses [/quote] Fairly easy to fit an extra pickup I suppose and thanks

20 knobs and 8 buttons, footswitch controller, para mids for low and high mid on both channels, there's fx loops for each channel and a global loop on the back along with a good switchable DI output, tuner send etc etc etc on the rear panel.

Yes it's in two halves with full controls for each channel then it also has a global output with low, mid and hi plus preshapes, knobs galore!

Cripes chief!

I've always struggled with the both pickups on with a jazz bass, I've put an active circuit in mine too.

BB Kind typo if your reading this Mr swift

I wonder who's got the heaviest jazz bass, I've played a 15lb one once!

Nah get a Stingray like were thinking in the first place

I think it's over the hill and stuffy enough to be perfect for a bit of stereotypical prog, I'd imagine must younger people would almost expect it to be on there.
