    Heavy replacement for MIM 5er bass bridge?

    At some point, probably soon I'd like to replace the bridge on my MIM 5er (toploader) with a heavy bridge. I've got a Gotoh 201-b4 on my 4 string and if nothing else it looks cool and was a drop-in. I'd like to find a heavy mass bridge that is a drop in where I don't have to drill and fill...

    can someone please explain the whole "less position shifting on a 5er"

    So I get one of the appeals of a 5 is to have 2 octaves at your fingertips in one position. But if I were to play this e major scale, wouldnt I still have to shift a bit? Are people able to stretch 4-9 without shifting? G|--------------------------------------6--8--9--...

    NBD: Fender Aerodyne 5er

    Ever since I started experiencing shoulder pain while gigging with my 13 lb ‘78 jazz, I’ve been a fan of light weight basses. My Ibanez that I got a couple years back has served me well at 7.5 lbs, but it’s the dual single coil sound that I love. I discovered the Aerodyne and was instantly taken...

    Mitchell 5er micro-review

    Made the plunge for a 5er for the 3rd time.

    I keep getting one and then deciding that I'm a 4 string player. Then I get the gas again. I got this yesterday and I must say I like it. The B is pretty good and the tonality range is out there.

    Do I need a 5 string?

    I own a P a J and a semi hollow with mini humbuckers, all 4. Now I strongly gassing a 5er. One with MM type pickups maybe, to complete the sound palette. I mostly play rock/blues, I don't slap, I wouldn't define 'excellent' my technique, but I've got big hands with long fingers. Do I need it? :)
