5 string w/ PJ pickups?

[Boombass76]

Hi,

I have been looking for a 5-string with P/J pickup configuration, but I have really have a hard time finding any models.

So far, these are the only ones I have been able to find:

Sadowsky, NYC Vintage 5 (P/J):

Yamaha, BB415:

So, if any of you guys know about other 5-string P/J basses please post...

The Yammy's the only one I've actually seen hanging on a wall.

 

[Bass Mule]

He makes some pretty nice basses.

Most custom luthiers will make you a PJ 5 string.

Mike Lull makes an awesome PJ5

Fender American Deluxe P-bass V. Best P-bass Fender ever made. Here's a superb testimonial. Bad language at end.

Hey - I had Jon Hill (Cleveland, OH) build one for me. He has since moved to Florida to work for Hamer, but you can check his site. He may still have some stock, and I'm really happy with mine. Link Removed

As someone else said, most quality luthiers will be more than happy to build one for you. The trick is finding someone with the right creds. Jon does nice work, and is fairly well-known in the builders community. Mine is fretless, and has active Bartolinis and exotic woods etc.. always draws a crowd and it sounds more like a P-bass than a P-bass in some ways, and ditto for the jazz. The pan lets you control everything and there's L-M-H controls as well, so the result is an almost limitless array of sounds. If you want more info feel free:

Sexiest bass ever! Valenti #23

Mike Lull makes a killer one.

I'm planning to buy the new Am STD P-bass and install a J pickup in the bridge position. I think this is gonna be killer!!

Pedulla makes P-J versions of its Rapture, Buzz, and MVP 5 string basses, with 19mm or 17.5 mm string spacing.

 

[buzzbass]

He makes some pretty nice basses.

I'm pretty sure that the middle pic is mine. I can attest to Nino's quality. Mine is fan-frigging-tastic

Edit: Oops, no it's not, mine doesn't have dots. But is looks just like that. Mine is #43 on Nino's website.

I want Nino to make me a 5 string J-bass with P/J EMG pickups.

Looks okay... Never played one, so I can't vouch for the quality.
