    Can you identify this bass?

    Can you identify this bass?

    That's because it originally was fretless and later on a luthier converted it to frets.

    Can you identify this bass?

    This mystery bass has no other writing on it besides the serial number 9302 on the back of the head. Maybe 1993 and bass #2? This neck through started life as a fretless. With a small thin body this is very light and is the easiest to play bass I have ever touched. A rumor is that it was built...

    Markbass CMD121p....COMBO!

    Agreed, it's a killer. I picked up a similar one, a European ComboHead II with 12". Paid $100 to have it converted to US juice and for a few hundred total it really is amazing for its' size and weight.

    Looking for Fender nitro lacquer touch up paint

    That's one of the sources that don't carry it anymore. They've been "out of stock" for months but thanks for the effort.

    Looking for Fender nitro lacquer touch up paint

    I'm trying to find some Fender Olympic White nitro lacquer touch up paint. Don't need much, need to fill a nick. It seems that my resources of the past are either out of business or no longer carry the stuff. Any tips are greatly appreciated.

    Thanks for the tips. I ordered the GHS in 38" from juststrings.com. 2nd to last set they have. Very hard to find.

    Looking for half round super long 5 string set

    I would hope the GHS could work. It's a newer Ibanez 5 string with 36" ball end to nut. 2 on top, 3 on bottom headstock.

    I can't seem to find a D'Addario XL half round (not round wound) super long scale 5 string set anywhere. Any tips where I can find a set or maybe an alternative brand? Thanks!

    Markbass Euro Conversion

    Bass bros, Just picked up a Markbass ComboHead II in the cab with 12" speaker for a song. It is a Euro version and I tried it with a 1000 watt step up/step down converter. It sounds great especially in such a light weight and small package. I'm interested in getting it converted to US voltage to...

    Small, Light and Powerful?

    Looks (and I'll bet sounds) nice. But at 44.6 pounds it's too much for my week back to schlep upstairs. Lots of excellent suggestions here. For me, a 30 pound max combo seems right. Lighter than that = even better.

    Small, Light and Powerful?

    It looks really cool but at 51 pounds I'd have to hire a porter to lug it up stairs.

    Small, Light and Powerful?

    What would be the ideal bass amp for this kind of scenario? A small club, upstairs, playing in a band with drums but not loud. The smaller and lighter the better. Your choice?

    Ibanez SR2600/SR2605, show your burls!

    I'm looking for one of these now, used at a good price. Hard to find. Your burl top is a good one, better than most I've seen.

    Small 5 string neck

    Thanks people for all of your suggestions. Keep them coming. I will check them all out. I've added a recent contender that feels pretty good, a Sandberg California II Tm.

    Small 5 string neck

    Hi all, Newbie member here but have been playing bass for decades. So I'm interested in finding a 5 string electric with a smaller than usual neck. Less than 1 3/4" or 44mm wide at the nut and less than 70mm wide at the opposite end. Any brands/models that fit this description most appreciated.
