    FS: Warwick Thumb 6 String Broadneck w/case

    How does this compare to say a Yamaha trb? I like the wide thin neck on mine, but have always wanted the Warwick sound. Is the neck more like a wide P bass near nut or narrow and thick? I have played the regular thumb 6s, but didn't like the string spacing.

    Should I Be Honest,Or Chuckle At Someones Mistake?

    I'd contact them, it's good karma. Who knows, it may just work out in your advantage seeing that they'd have to pay shipping for your new bass, and return shipping for the 4 string. If they have to eat that much shipping, then maybe it's just better off to leave the deal as it panned out...

    $5 Gig Bags @ TheBassPlace.com

    Still seems like a great deal in bulk. I would have loved to have caught that. I have one too many basses without a case/bag, and I have some friends in the same predicament.

    SX 6er Jazz Bass in at Rondo!

    Thanks for the input Bassbenj! I didn't even realize these were different wood from the first run. I DO prefer alder over ash too. At this price, I'll reconsider it again. I was planning on using one tuned E to E to utilize its string spacing and get rid of my Ibanez SR 560. I could probably...

    SX 6er Jazz Bass in at Rondo!

    Been wanting to pull the trigger since last batch came out. I have it in cart, picked out a case.... but now I'm worried about how accessible are the higher frets. How does it feel at the neck heel area? I don't play many bolt-on necks, but I know that I despise fender/squire neck heels.

    FS: USA Cirrus 6 - Fretless! Rare!

    Bumps for the quick reply, Thank you. I'm used to the 19mm (3/4") spacing on my TRB, but I can work comfortably with with something around 18". The 35" does kill it for me tho. Too bad tho, this is a sweet looking bass.

    FS: USA Cirrus 6 - Fretless! Rare!

    Where abouts in Tx are ya? I'm in Brownsville, SPI area. I've been looking for a 34" scale fretless 6, but most of them don't have wide enough spacing (19mm) for me. What's scale, and string spacing on this one?

    Does Not Compute: $139 SX Mahogany 6 String with Set Neck

    I saw these when they came out, but didn't post a new thread or link on TB as I'd get the typical "use search" or "don't make double threads" speeches..... Anyway, there were 7 available that night, and non sold until the next morning. I passed on one because of the ~`15mm string spacing...

    Yamaha Japanese P-Bass?

    The "0010" part of the serial looks stamped, but I can't really tell with the 91. That would explain why 001091 doesn't come out anywhere. I was looking at this page, Invalid Link Removed, as I deciphered my bass' "birthdays" from the number system. I can't seem to make anything out for your...

    Yamaha Japanese P-Bass?

    The serial numbers are usually stamped in the back of the headstock. Are the numbers in the picture written, not stamped? At a glance, looks like a BB800 with a different bridge. As for which to pick, I prefer the 21 frets and reverse P pickups on Yamaha basses over the affinity series basses.

    Gear left at Venue - There when you went back?

    Good stories. My old guitarist borrowed our singer's randy rhoads guitar once. He went to jam with some friends, then put it in the bed of his truck. He then went to a fast food place to pick up something to eat (nobody noticed it). When he got home, he was so hungry that he got straight out of...

    Yamaha bb425 5 string on sale for $299

    You guys are giving me GAS! I never cared fora P/J bass, seeing as i have the 1500 (active jazz) and the 1200s (active/passive P) BBs..... but I've been looking for something fretless. Anybody ever remove the frets on a yamaha P/J or know if they make one?

    Lakland 55-01 Vs Yamaha TRB5

    TRB 5 +3! The first generation ones are killer. The mid switch can let you go from thumpy reggae, to a nice punchy slap tone, to that nasal jaco sound all with the flip of the switch. Tweak it however you see fit, but it will work across various styles. The bass itself is a workhorse.

    That is just so cool on so many levels. I've always wanted a Rick, but being a 6 string guy, I've always passed it up. Now I have something to look to (oneday). :hyper:

    With this bass you can join a lot of clubs...

    Yes.... yes it is! I haven't looked in the for sale thread because of GAS... and now you show me this!? I love Japanese basses, and green basses, and pointy basses... and hollowbodies.... You sir, have brought so much joy. :hyper:

    Am I the only player that prefers heavy basses?

    I prefer my basses in the 10+ lbs range, but I do have 2 under 10lb basses that I use as a backup. I use a wide strap to help distribute the weight tho.

    Carvin SB5000 / SB4000 Roll Call...Part 4!

    I've been saying this since day one. A wide spacing (19mm) SB 6 string would be exactly what I'm currently looking for. The piggybank is filling up for a x-mas SB5000 if the 6er never comes to fruition.

    Choosing between Yamaha's

    Stick with the BB. They are players through and through. The RBX looks and feels a bit "modern" to me. I do like them, but not enough to buy one even for backup purposes.

    SX Ursa 6-string Jazz bass

    I personally love active basses. I just like that cleaner Hi-fi for the most part. That Audere pre sounds real clean for chords, but yeah he does have the high rolled up just a tad too much... For me, personally I'd dig either the Audere or my Yamaha BB1500 (same as trb4 I believe) preamp in one...
