That's pretty much my dream bass line up... Would love a Spector or Music Man. I narrowly missed one of those Washburn's on fleabay a while back. Had a B2A with EMG pickups and it sounded amazing, just couldn't get on with the string spacing. Swap the B2A for a five string jazz and that's a collection I would be very happy with indeed!

uk_lefty Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 Here's my current bass menu ... Kramer fretless 5. Mexican jazz. Sire Vintage V7 5 string. Fender Japanese PB70 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kevham Posted September 18, 2018 Share Posted September 18, 2018 I still want a Fender Precision, a Fender Jazz and a custom Overwater to complete my collection. How are you getting on with the Sire? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_lefty Posted September 19, 2018 Share Posted September 19, 2018 (edited) Loving the Sire. I've been toying with getting all sorts of basses but I love the sound of a jazz bridge pickup, I also wanted to see what having a fifth string would give me. I wanted a maple board and a decent active EQ. The Sire is great for me. Arrived perfectly set up and I think that has as much influence as anything, the action is ridiculously low and I run all over it quicker than my other basses. I barely touch the EQ, it sounds so good with everything at the middle, I don't EQ my amp or engage a preamp pedal now. It doesn't suit everything but I can calm the brightness and snappiness easily with the EQ. It was excellent value at just over £520 or whatever, feels as good a build quality as my Japanese Fender. If you're curious about them you won't regret buying one. Edited September 19, 2018 by uk_lefty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you're curious about them you won't regret buying one. I had a Sire. I traded it to get the Stingray. The tuners were replaced within six months but the replacements were just as bad. Other than that, it was a good guitar. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Graham A Posted April 28, 2019 Share Posted April 28, 2019 My two current basses, a Fender US Professional Precision in Olympic White & a recently purchased Fender Player Precision in Tidepool. I bought the Player as back up, but to be honest I've been taking it to my recent gigs. Loving the slightly more modern sound & slimmer neck profile 🙂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
