Hi, I'm narrowing down my list of 5-string basses and would like some help if you can with recommendations or thoughts if you've used them or know them. My band plays alternative rock, think STP/Deftones type music. I like a bit of growl with the lows and mid-range punch.
I'm looking at...

A great playing bass with some killer upgrades but not getting much playtime between my others. To me, this has the ultimate P-Bass 5 tone, with plenty of impressive Jazz tones at the bridge pickup.
Ash body with non-invasive tortoise shell pick-guard attached.
35” scale with tight B-string...

Lakland 55-01 Vintage Creme
The guys said "get a 5 string" so I picked this up. I pretty quickly realized why I switched back to 4's a few years back.....just can't leave that B alone lol. It's a bit on the heavy side at 9.6 lbs but plays wonderfully. No case but I'll ship in a gig bag. See pics...

So I’ve decided I’m a 4 string guy so there’s really no reason for this sweet fiver to sit there collecting dust!
04 Lakland Skyline 55-01 in cherry burst on the block here. Few nicks and sings. Couple of what look like pressure cracks in the finish but nothing that effects playability. Bass...
