Exams are over, so I gathered some money and it's time to buy a new bass. I play metal (thrash and death to be exact) and here are some basses I have in mind. I'll be glad to hear your suggestions and advice. One choise is this Spector Performer 5 Classic: [Invalid or Expired Link Removed]...

I don't count them as metal too. :) Yeah you're right. I want a Spector 5 string bass like Webster's too but it's too expensive. The cheaper I found was arround 1.200 euro ( 1.600 $ ). :crying:

Hahaha! And now the all famous quote: "I'm Matthew Hopkins Witchfinder!"

Yes I undertand. The one I found is this: http://cgi.ebay.com/B-C-Rich-NJ-Series-IRON-BIRD-IRONBIRD-BASS-Red-w-Stand-/120671164641?pt=Guitar&hash=item1c188fd8e1 Not so expensive (if no one else bids of course :cool: ).

Yeah this is the BC Rich. Gibson Explorers are good too, expensive though. :smug:

Oh no offense mate. :D

Yeah I saw this one too on the Ebay. I don't know. I haven't found another one on Ebay so far... Still searchin'.

@kcole4001: Oooops! My fault. I don't knw what I had in mind when I was typing the topic title... Maybe it's the affect of the horror movies. :hiding: @christw: Yes that's the one: Invalid Link Removed

Unfortunatelly not/ I found them both on the Internet. The bad thing is that I can't try them but you know, the Ironbird is sold for about 190 $. Not so expensive. And it isn't beatn up, only a small scrach in one corner.

So I'm working for about a month now and I saved some money to buy a new bass finally. I mostly play Thrash and Death Metal. So I'm for something like a B.C. Rich Ironbird - Ibanez Destroyer - Aria ZZB Pro or something like that. After some search I found these two: B.C. Rich Ironbird NJ...

Yeah Lace Alumitone is good!!! Do you know where can I find these, exept Ebay?

Well I've chekced some Dimarzio pickups. Pretty good, and fair prises. How about these ones? http://cgi.ebay.com/DIMARZIO-DP120-Model-One-Bass-Guitar-Humbucker-Pickup-/300399582013?pt=Guitar_Accessories&hash=item45f135db3d I've also found this one...

Me and a bunch of friends, decided to make a metal project playing some obscure doom metal. So I want to make my bass make a more 70's vintage sound. I'm kind of broken these days so I'm looking for not very expensive sollutions. I want to add a neck pickup and I'm thinking for something like...

That's what I thought too guys. So I'm gonna find a factory neck that fits to me and go on with the body by my own. I've got a few ideas about the shape of the body. Maybe I'll post some pics when it's done. One more question. When you finish the whole body, then what colors do you use for...

Thanks for the info! I'll try it myself and then I'll post some picks of my final plans. As for the neck, do you suggest me to use an older one, or design one by my own? Is it hard? ~George
