$2K: Which would you buy?

[mngnt]

I'll take the Sandberg VM5 for the win! Reverse P and a MM?

Agreed! - I am currently in the process of routing my '89 MIJ P to add a MM! Going with Delanos too...

My eldest will be in college this Fall. No matter how much GAS I have, after this bass, extra money will be for travel and college expenses.

What is this “extra money” thing of which you speak? You can’t put “college” and “extra money” in the same sentence. Stop that.

I will finally get my Fender US Geddy Lee out around Christmas or New Year. The problem is that it has taken me so long to get it, I am not that excited about it anymore (that could easily change when it actually does come home.) I am thinking about letting it go for something a bit more expensive or maybe even something cheaper. This is not a serious poll. I just want to know what some of you think.

I never heard of a Tony Franklin Fender Jazz bass. I've only seen his p-bass models. Is this a new thing?

 

[Acoustic356]

The new offshore Xotic line isn't on your list?

 

[GreyBeard]

I'm a 5 stringer and I don't own a Ric so, I'd go for the Ric-5. Besides, they look so cool.

That was a typo.

I would have voted the Franklin, but the color selection is horrid.

They offer the Franklin in black and you posted a picture of your bass, which is black.

Shell Pink soon.... very soon.....

 

[ctmullins]

I voted for the Rick.

I find all of your other poll choices utterly boring...

 

[Dr. Cheese]

Off topic, this young whipper snapper makes want to take the Geddy and shut up!

DISCLAIMER: I've never played a MetroExpress - - but I've played other Sadowsky models and I've heard several guys around Nashville play them and they always sound superb.

I think you might want to give a Rickenbacker 4003 a try too. They sound somewhat different from Fender clones and provide a nice voice in a mix.

 

[Dr. Cheese]

After listening to a bunch of my videos, that Geddy Lee really sounds good. I probably should not be in a rush to let it go.

 

[logdrum]

Sadowsky. I never had one and to me , they are work horses

Buy that lake placid blue mike lull in the classifieds

I won’t be buying anything until I get the Geddy first, so I am not worried about anything currently in the classifieds.
