I'm attempting to successfully downsize from years of boutique basses to something far less expensive as I'm no longer playing as much and keeping that level of expensive gear makes no sense. In trying to replace my F-Bass BN6 with something kinda close I picked up an ESP LTD B-206sm from Musicians Friend and I have 45 days to evaluate it, then keep it or return it. Does anyone have first hand experience with this bass and what are your thoughts and what did you upgrade to make it work for you.
