Just realised I haven't posted this here. My recently acquired SRMS806. Apart from the mildest buckle rash on the rear, there's not a mark on it and according to the seller it was a studio case queen. I was looking for the DTW finish, but this came up at the right price and time, and now I have it in my hands, I've grown to love it, same with the MS. It'll look really good with the GVB36 when it gets here.

That is a very sexy bass. I'd love one of them myself, but until one comes up here really cheap, my blue 5 string Ibby will have to be my 375.

Wicked deal.

That was a fairly conventional set of mods when I was younger.

It's not difficult, but if you're not familiar with routers, watch some general woodworking videos on how to use them, practice on some scrap wood, go slowly taking off small amounts per pass, follow the direction of the router bit and use a template. Simmnet in the UK make nice ones. If you're unsure what you're doing, it's really easy to <expletive> up the instrument. Be careful. I've never used a Dremel for this, but a small flush trim style router would be better as it has some power, but no so much it'll be like a rodeo bronco if it bites into something in the wood like a denser grained section.

In a choice between the EHB605 and the Cort Space 5, I'd go with the Cort. I don't like the blue, and I have Ibbys with the walnut flat finish, and I'll pass in the future.

I'll repost with better pics.

Absolutely luvverly. If it had at least one more string, I'd be really jealous, not just a wee bit.

How much wider is this, I presume at the nut, than the standard version? My OLP MM5 was 43mm from memory.

That is awesome. I'd also like to know what printer it is because maybe there's someone local who can do the same - I have a ton of ideas that would work with this approach that I've been reluctant to approach with printed vinyl.

I would have made some empty replica boxes out of thin ply, and got some badges made on Etsy.

Has anyone with one of these used it as a guitar amp? Looking at maybe the Joyo + battery pack or Headrush FRFR Go to play either guitar or bass on the beach, for practice. The Joyo would be the cheaper option by a bit, when it's available down here.

My late wife wanted a Bosendorfer, but I bought her a Yamaha instead, because she loved the specific piano, and at the time the Bosendorfer was maybe 40% of our house price and seven years wait. Or maybe that was the really nice store owner seeing my face when he mentioned the price exaggerating the order time.

They're both fine looking basses, but that 5 I'd love to try. Congrats gents.

I want one of those. My singing teacher has one and I've picked it up briefly when there and it looks like a great piece of kit. I have an Artist Guitars NTL1 solidbody nylon which is close enough for me, at the moment, especially at 1/3 the cost of the Yamaha. Mine sits by my bed to practice, noodle and write on. I'm getting my recently replaced cell phone repaired to use as a recorder to write on as I won't take my mobile into that part of the house.
