    Taylor Mini bass vs. Alvarez MSB1

    Can anyone chime in on how these compare and which one you think is best? I would like something I can mess around with and also have my kids use. Would you spend the extra couple for a Taylor?

    Musicman Caprice vs. 2016 Fender PJ Magnificent 7

    I did feel the same way when I happened to play one at the local Guitar Center. It had that Musicman Humbucket quality to it packaged in that P/J setup. Now I have to think about selling stuff to get this bad boy.

    So did you try the Fender limited edition P/J?

    Musicman Caprice vs. 2016 Fender PJ Magnificent 7

    Does anyone have an opinion about these two? How do they fare against each other, specifically? I'm looking for a 4 string passive P/J. For myself, this would end up being my only bass so it's versatility is desired. Thanks.

    Are these long enough for a 5 stringer?

    Hi. The overall length is approximately 48". Right now I am using my old Road Runner gig bag that I bought at Guitar Center. It fits just right with no wiggle room. I do want another I've though. Let me know what you ended up getting.

    I agree. The weight is not an issue with me too beacuse I am also a big guy. Also, I think subconsciously the heavier the bass the more full and robust it sounds. That's just me, I guess. I do have a Road Runner gig bag for my Fender P bass and the KSD fits very snuggly. I just emailed...

    Did it fit well? Was it snug or was there a litttle room left? Sounds like you got the case with the bass. Mine did not come with a case. I have a gig bag (Road Runner bag from Guitar Center), but it fits pretty snug.

    What type of case/gig bag did you use? I wonder if your 605 was as long as my 705.

    I haven't weighed the bass yet, but I will do that when I get back home tonight. When I was testing out these basses, I also tried the natural swamp ash 705. I did notice it was quite heavier than my white alder KSD. I always thought that swamp ash is lighter than alder. Also the...
