    Replacement neck for an Ibanez GSR206

    Has anyone replaced a neck for a 6-string Ibanez GSR206 Bass? Came across an elusive left-handed version & wanna make it a project bass. I plan on making it fretless by either defretting it or replacing the neck with a fretless one, if possible. A 24-fret, fretless neck would be nice & it would...

    Jones SM2 6-String Bass. WOW!!!

    I’ve been seeing a lot of social media posts from Jones Bass in England. They looked amazing and the sound samples were solid. I gave them a shot and couldn’t be happier. The build quality is top notch and the electronics are amazing. I picked up the 6-string SM2 model with the oil finish. The...

    What the …?

    Temu had this for $350…only available in left hand version. I get the idea of making a copy of a famous model, but a left-hand 6-string Bingo just seems…weird.

    Musical Theater Gigs and 6-string

    I just finished up playing Pippin on my Ibby Volo, strung E-c. The C string was very helpful for this book, and the Volo has a 33" scale, which is helpful for reading. I played the notes below E an octave up. I am wondering if it would be worth using a 6-string, and if so would another Ibby be...

    Dogal Hellborg for fretless?

    I play a 6-string fretless Carvin, tuned B E A D G C, but I am not against drop tuning if necessary. I play classical/jazz style using fingers and enjoy harmonic tones. I have heard about the Dogal Hellborn Signature strings with their "true tone" concept but am wondering if anyone has used...

    Down the "Rabbit Hole" Alice! 6 - String Gauges (34" & 35" scale)

    I've recently run into some frustrations with finding full 6 string sets with any variety of gauges. To get gauge options, one usually has to jump brands to find them. If you look for super long scale for a 35" It's even worse. However I have come up with a current solution for one of my 35"...

    What is the Jazz or P of 6-string basses?

    Reading through TB, and based on the vast number of models inspired by them, seems like Js and Ps are the classic, go-to 4-string basses. What, if anything, is the equivalent for 6-string bass? Hopefully that question makes sense.

It so happened that there was a 6-string bass in there for $999.99, and I happened to be trading in another bass for a modest sum. It also happened that it was closing time, and...
