FS/FT F-Bass BN5

Sign in to disble this ad
I have a brand new F-Bass BN5, -Ash Body, Dark Brown Burst with matching headstock & Pickup Covers, Maple Neck & Fingerboard.
This is a great sounding bass but the neck is too narrow at the nut for me. I'm looking for a bass with a neck width of at least 2" at the nut (MTD, Sadowsky, Elrick). Or selling for $3,000.

Sadowsky Metros are 1 7/8" at the nut. NYCs can probably be customized to what you want.

Yes, that's right. I used to have a Metro and the neck was comfortable to play.

Just FYI, as far as I know, 1 7/8 is typical for MTD, Sadowsky. Which is considered perhaps the widest available. The only bass I found with a wider neck width is Fender Squire 5, @ 2". Huge! And the Fender MIA Deluxe Jazz V is 1.81 mm.

Nice bass bump.

Yeah, 1 7/8 is what I'm looking for.

George will do a 1 7/8" nut if you want it. I'm ordering one like that myself.
