    How many years (if any) did you play 4 strings before buying a 5 string?

    Got my first bass at 17 and a 5 string by 18. Practiced like 2 days to get the grip and went playing live. tbh no point in returning to a 4string ever again

    Are expensive basses (rickenbacker, American standard fender, etc.) worth it?

    US Fenders are the most overpriced things in existence, you can litteraly get better instruments with an actual QC for half the price. Ricks are a different things, since they are pretty unique and with less competition.

    Considering an Ibanez SR500

    I had an SR505- same thing, just a 5 string. Would recommend it 110% pros: -awesome neck, very close to a jazz, just a bit thinner. Plays like butter. I used to swap this bass with my Warwick Thumb, the transion is nonexistent -great hardware; the tuners do well and the bridge works flawlessly...

    Have you ever broken your straplock?

    I have a schaller straplock on my warwick thumb 5. The bass is on the heavy side, and tbh, I feellike the straplock might brake during playtime. It just doesent fills me with confidence. The straplocks are installed 100% correctly, if anyone wonders... Am I just paranoid or do these things happen?

    Warwick Thumb vs Spector Euro

    Hello I have a Warwick Thumb 5, 1998. with wenge neck and MEC electronics. Recently, I have found that it just might not be what I am looking for- it was the best bass ever for my death metal band, but we rarely play anymore. I am looking for something more versatile- from metal to pop and...

    Are you loyal to 1 brand or all different brands ?

    I just have "more love" to some brands- I realy love EBMM and Warwick. As a company, I dislike Fender and Gibson. Others are come-and-go.
