In natural colour and ovangkol neck and wenge board. Pickup config is like what you see on Thumb Warwick Streamer Jazzman 5 - lovely purple colour Warwick Streamer Jazzman 4 - another ocean blue Musicman Stingray Starry Night 4 - this one is soooooooooo disco!

Mike Lull PJ5 - lovely dark brown finish with birdseye maple board just classy! Fender Jazz Bass 4 FSR - 70's bass natural, maple board with perloid blocks and cream binding and Lindy Fralins pickups + J retro Alpher Mako 4 - Crazyburl top, master grade roasted birdseye maple. Double humbuckers Nords bigblades (insane output even though it's all passive!!!) with coil split and series/parallel options (insane tonal variations!!) Yamaha TRB1005 - trans black with quilted ?veneer top (think it's still here on the market place for sale) Alpher Cobia 5 - roasted swamp ash body, flame maple top, wenge neck and board. Lovely teal finish. Bigblades 5. Again all passive with series/parallel switching. Alpher Cobia 5 - paulownia body, flame maple top, flame maple neck and board.

Boutique/boutique-ish basses that I own/have owned:

Easily one of the most straightforward deals I had here on basschat. Great guy!

Love it.

That STR is rather tasty!

Easy deal! Deal with confidence guys. What a pleasant guy 😁

90% of the time this

I say do both if you can afford it. It gives you different perspective on how you play either.

Very humble rig nowadays... just using the combo for stage volume.

It's my first time trying them this month. So far so good. I used to use Dunlop Super Brights Stainless Steels, but at max they only last me 2-3 gigs. I only had 1 gig so far though but I haven't heard any fading brightness or change in tone. Not the same feel as what I'm used to but not bad either, just different.

I pretty much gave up trying basses on big music shops. No matter how I wanted to try a specific bass. I find that the setup is just rubbish. Well of course as some people have already pointed out that it's different for specialised shops like Bass Direct and The Bass Gallery. I've seen this US Geddy Lee which for the longest time I'm so curious about but when I tried it in a bigger shop in Birmingham, I was just disappointed. I know it's only a setup but it kills your keen-ess towards the instrument.

jeeez that looks great!

I'm in!

Sold my Yamaha TRB1005 to Chris. Awesome guy, great chat. Thanks Chris!
