Calling all metal 5-stringers!!!!

[JSK5String]

We're much more classic rock than metal, but I use my B string whenever I feel the need to make the lady dancers' "innerds" rumble.

The P in my avatar photo into this:

The wireless unit is under the shelf and the EQ pedal is in the FX loop of the VT Bass Deluxe, and it only gets used if I need to tweak my tone for a room so I don't have to mess with each of the presets on the VT. The pedals go into this DIY rig:

Killer rig! I have a powerhouse 410 and am looking for another!

Thanks - in all honesty, I think you'd be better off with a Goliath Sr than adding another PH410... I used to play my 700rb-II thru one all the time, and it killed... I used to use the Goliath Sr in rehearsal, and a PH610 during gigs - but either cab would've gotten the job done really well...

Here's my current rig along side of the PH610 I used to have, with the 700rb-II I still have... I've sold the 610, and have a PH215 on order:

Rig is in my sig. Most shows I go direct to the FOH from my SansAmp. Two channels... one is the effected out, the other is the uneffected out, then FOH blends them to taste (heavy on the clean/uneffected, slight grit from the dirt side of things). I don't even plug my cab in on stage... it's just used to have the rack be somewhat higher up.

Acoustic 370 - MesaPowerhouse 1000

I use a custom 5 string jazz bass which is 35 scale and it gives the low B a lot of clarity which I need. I have another 5 string custom les paul type bass in 35 scale which roars as well. A stingray 5 hh rounds the 5 string stable but the B isn't as tight (isn't floppy either).
