kevbass Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 Hello all, I was browsing the pages of ebay whilst bored at work and found this, Ive always fancied having a proper go at 6 string bass, but I dont want to spend much money, and this is nice and cheap plus I prefer the looks compared to mazetti basses that I had also considered, just wondered if anyone had any experience with these or just your general opinion [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/H-S-Sequoia-6-bass-6-string-Custom-Model_W0QQitemZ320117530046QQihZ011QQcategoryZ4713QQssPageNameZWDVWQQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/H-S-Sequoia-6-bass-6...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wizbat Posted May 23, 2007 Share Posted May 23, 2007 I must say they do an interesting range, did you see the tripleneck guitar!! I must admit I don,t know what they are like to play but at that price I,d guess it,s worth a punt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rumour6 Posted May 26, 2007 Share Posted May 26, 2007 Hi there, one of my students bought one about a month ago, the neck is a bit 'clubby' but not out of order, seems to be fantastic value for the money. Good luck. Andy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rayman Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 They look great, especially the sequoia natural 6, very nice. I've always fancied a 6 stringer, but never had the balls to go for it. I've tried a couple off the wall in various shops, but that just made me wonder if I was up to it. I tried a nice Yamaha TRB 6, and that was nice, but like you, I couldn't afford it.

Bassassin Posted May 28, 2007 Share Posted May 28, 2007 I have no real use for a 6er (the low B on my 5 is a very long thumbrest ) but this is tempting even to me: [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Thru-Neck-Active-6-String-Bass-Guitar_W0QQitemZ270122685486QQihZ017QQcategoryZ4713QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Thru-Neck-Active-6-S...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] Stripey! Runs out in an hour, though. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
