cheers for heads up. I did more research and the radius of the neck is 12”. I’ve only ever played 7.25 and 9.5

I went to wunjo guitars on Denmark street a couple days ago and tried so many basses. I had never played a Ibanez before so gave the sr600 a go. 🫨 wow it’s probably the most comfortable neck I’ve ever played, especially for chords and melodic phasing. Sound was cool also. I played a very very unique gretsch 63 bass that just was so different, that was slightly more appealing. Made me Play completely different, more long root note style. I’ve only owned fender style p basses and went to look for something which would compliment my chord, melodic playing. Extremely impressed. I’ll be looking on the used market for a Ibanez. Now I get why the fretted Ibanez GWB is rare to find used lol

Interesting. I wonder if the oil finish rather than paint plays a role. Started on a p bass and have just stuck with them. Now when I improvise what comes out is more chordal melodic phases. Maybe now a slimmer neck and a warm sounding bridge pick-up is needed.

Cheers for the heads up bud. I did see the sadowsky strings. They have silver, blue and black label. I’ll check the Warwick also.

Oh sweet. genuinely you should. They are both £2200 though, pit of my price range atm. Sold as new as the seller left them in the box. I went for the ash body maple neck but the rosewood fretboard and ash body played miles better in the hand and was so dynamic which confused me. The maple fretboard one didn’t play well imo. It was like I was fighting the neck. I may see in the store lol

I take it you are talking about the bass gallery in Camden. Funny enough I was planking on heading there today. I got caught up. They have a two insane fender precisions. Same body ash red oil finished but one has a maple neck and the other rosewood. What’s surprising is the rosewood is miles more reactive to dynamics. Played like a maple when you dig in but warm whe playing soft. Maple was rather contained in a meh way.

Great find. Need to find a shop with great deals on strings. This site has some on Dunlop and sadowsky, looking for ghs and la bella also

wow how did you get it for £63? I just went on site via link and with the discount code it came to £151. I’m always late to the party 🙈.

Lmao I wouldn’t know mate. Never tried 🤣🤣🤣🤣. some things was very unique. Never heard a double bass use a synth pedal before. Really enjoyed the energy
