+a bunch Once you have seen one pair you want to see them all...

+1 I played with a guitar player a few years ago who was as good as anyone I have ever heard. Talent and skill overflowed. However, he just was happy to play in a crappy little bar band. As he put it "being famous is just too much work." It seems Tal has done everything possible on her end to...

I was just showing this bass to my wife last night on the website and she thought it was really beautiful. So, it gets a bump with an endorsement from a lady as to its attractiveness. And best of luck!

What color is the fingerboard? I think that makes a huge difference on the choice. Personally I like W/B/W on these...

My new acquisition- a well cared for Ibanez...

His BP comments were that these basses were to be completely gone over and set-up before they were shipped so you would not have to worry about rough frets, intonation issues, etc.

I dig my SB-2- it is the black metallic with black pickguard. I am probably going to change the pickguard out with one from http://pickguards.us/ but have not decided on which color yet- maybe the baltic amber or a tortoise shell one. Love the sound of it though and just switched strings to TI...

Here is my Tribbie SB-2 so I can join the ranks!

Roscoe V. The only other Fender that got my ear was a Hwy1 Jazz recently but a G&L won out in that battle...

Count me in! Neo-Pak 3.5 and GB210T XB and (somebody else's 15")- definitely a huge upgrade from my old PV TKO. Now the neighbors don't boom their car stereo late at night lest I need to "practice". Would like #777 if possible.

I went out to buy a new Fender J and ended up with a Tribute SB-2. For less money I got a much better sound and more flexibility. This thing plays like it is already broken in! There are times I have to remind myself that it is not an active bass the sound is so strong. I had been toying with...
