crez5150 Posted March 21, 2009 Share Posted March 21, 2009 Just to add that when I sold this to Colin it was basically brand new. I got it shipped in and it was still in it's original packing box from the states, never played, just out of the packaging to check the condition and a string change. So in effect Colin was the first real owner of the bass Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rich Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 Hi Col What's the string spacing at the bridge? Looks narrower than the usual 3/4"ish Fender spacing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually I just go on the if it feels right it's ok. I'll have a look when I get home. Col Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't owned or played an SX, but from the owners on here they all say how good they are for the money. It should surely be a great starter for anyone wanting to move onto playing 5ers at little cost. And if they want to mod it, there's plenty of room for updating without having to remortgage. I wonder if Lake Placid Blue is not the new black? Edited April 4, 2009 by Thunderthumbs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
