nice stingray

5strings!! What you mean they make 5 string basses now? Only kidding, when I last played bass around 20+ yrs ago I can't even remember seeing one! I had a Jaydee roadie I bought from some shop ' up that London' for 300 quid! So nice to get a bass again, all be it 4 strings, wouldn't know where to start with 5

Thanks fella's, great info

Good point, always thought of mighty mite necks as inferior!

Great comments, many thanks

Hey thanks again Deano, I did think about the stingray neck fs on BC and build a stingray but I don't know if I'd save much money by the time I finished?

Thanks Deano, can't see my streamer being worth much more thn 300 so it's a big jump for a hme use bass

I was thinking of building a jazz bass and wondered: to start with the fretted neck which would be the best buy? American, Mexican, Japan, squire, after market? I know it's not to everyone's taste but I love the distressed/Jaco look (but fretted) Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated Rog

I've recently picked up a bass again after years and bought a Streamer Standard German from a fellow bass chatter, well I'm enjoying playing It so much I was thinking of trading up for a thumb, what I wanted to know is: is a thumb that much better? Bearing mind my bass only see's home use so electrics aren't really an issue, I've read a lot about the body wood of my streamer which I agree witlh (feels like balsa wood) but the neck is excellent build quality and feel, BTW I was also thinking of a Stingray! Always loved the look and sound of stingrays, always loved jazz/funk 80's blah blah blah Your thoughts would be greatly appreciated. Ta What could I expect to have to add to get one of these basses? (my streamer is great condition single pick up model)
