    Cheers for that! I've messaged Binky...

    Yeah, that makes total sense, I hadn't really considered the string spacing. It's a bit of a rabbit hole really. The difficulty for me is that where I live there aren't any music shops that have 6 string basses, so have to go largely by advice from fellow bass players and you tube videos.

    cheersd for allthe help guys, really appreciate it.
  5. DiceSociety
    That's a bit of a curve ball. Would be rude not to have a look, could you send me some details please?
  6. DiceSociety
    Cheers for that. The weight doesn't really bother me to be honest. I think the 35 scale would be preferable, but I've no personal experience to verify this.

    Yeah, did initially look at a Btb 806, but seems very difficult to get any clear sound examples which aren't heavily processed. The ones I have heard didn't sound as good to me as the Sire. But this is going by you tube videos though, so hardly scientific. Would you recommend them then?

    To cut a long story short, I've decided to go over to the dark side and get a 6 string bass. The sort of stuff I (attempt to) play is sort of king Crimson crossed with Miles Davis, with a healthy dollop of funk, and a smattering of metal when we're in the mood. My budget is around 1500 quid and I've narrowed it down to either the Sire F10 6, or perhaps a Yamaha Trb; does anyone have any opinions/advice on either of these?

    I use Biyang clones of a Rat and a big muff pedals. Both play really well with valves and sound epic.

    "Good bass playing should mean you shouldn't notice the bass in the song" - As I was once told during an audition...

    John Paul Jones for me. Always my go to bassist if I'm stuck for ideas; the way he blends melodic phrases, the all important funk, and driving rock when needed, is always inspirational.

    Nickel NYXL's on my current Jazz bass, but I used to use various types of steel strings on my Musicman. I think the bass dictates what string type I use. These days I'm also conscious of wear and tear on the fret wire, and nickel are supposed to be more forgiving.
