    Music Man Sub5 Bass: Should I buy it?

    Yeah I'd like to try out a new SUB instead of the one I did. The weight was an issue for me too because I'm a tiny girl. Also he had put bits of paper under the strings to stop fret buzz and there was just something wrong with the top string, so it didn't sound too great and I didn't want to...

    Music Man Sub5 Bass: Should I buy it?
