Second this. I got my IG3Ts about a year ago and they've been great. For the size/performance/price/scalability/throw/clarity, it's tough to beat. Only used them without subs once on a bluegrass type band and was pretty impressed with how it handled lower frequencies.

I just finished doing this with my Sire V5. Turner pickups and a lusithand preamp. Would recommend!

Forgot to post this picture from the store as well, but they got a P5R in this shipment as well and it may have the darkest roasted neck I've ever seen. It almost blends in with the rosewood. Looks incredible in person.

Here's a pretty rare sight in Sire world... Local dealer with brand new Sires in stock. There's another passive P bass with a ridiculously roasted looking neck not pictured. Got a bunch of sire guitars in as well.

As soon as I get the funds, I'm going to order a 126 to pair up with my 123. Paired with my GK MB500, the setup has the combination of small(ish), lightweight(enough) but can also handle some decent wattage (500W a piece with the normal Delta LF 12) and be loud enough to hang with a loud band...

Yea, it sounds pretty good at low and pushed levels. After having it a while, the tweeter is only set at 1/8-1/4. The 6 inch speaker and the crossover point push the tweeter into even higher frequencies. It's not necessarily a bad thing, especially if you're playing slap or metal and want that...

Anyone know anything about the blue M3s that were put on their website but never sold? I wouldn't mind picking one up.

I wonder if these necks fit a standard Fender neck pocket. Depending on the price of the necks, they could be nice necks for a project or upgrade.

Had a gig last night and was finally able to give it a test run. Ran a MB500 into a sb123 and a hartke 2.5xl with a sire V7 and man did it sound nice. Was able to stand up against 2 marshall half stacks and the loudest drummer i've ever played with. I don't play anything lower than a C# (Drop D...

Good to know my ears didn't fail me.

I thought I replied on here a few days ago, but apparently, i didn't. I received my SB123 with Delta speaker on friday and it sounds pretty good. I'll do a more in depth review when my MB500 gets here tomorrow. As far as the size and weight goes, it's amazing how much easier it is to carry than...

Wonder what colors and the price point will be for the quilted maple jazz basses...

Wow. I was in the market for just one more bass, but it looks like that just changed. If there's a blue quilted maple jazz bass, I'll order one tomorrow. But between the new blue M3, PJ bass and quilted maple jazz, I don't know which one I'll get. Crazy. Personally, my hands and a pbass neck...

I'm for sure picking up one of these when I get the funds. I'm generally a one bass kind of guy (got a V7), so I don't really feel the need for a lot of basses, but this looks too good to pass up.

If they could get an American dealer to deliver Thomann prices but with free shipping, then they'll sell like crazy.
