I recently got my LG4 just to have a jazz in my arsenal, but after playing it, i just haven't been able to go back to my Fbasses.

I love my BN6, and even though it's not a direct comparison, Jimmy's basses just does something special for me... F basses are fabulous instruments and I'm glad I have one, and there are A TON of great instruments out there even just in the "J" realm... But A-C's are it for me.

Yeah, the first gig was with the AC felt weird because it felt do different than the Fbass but now the Fbasses don't even feel or sound good to me, and when i got my Fbass, it blew everything away, i sold everything but the F

Remember my comment in the F bass club that I wanted to go all F bass after getting my BN6? That was a valid statement at the time. But after a few days passed and I picked my LM5 back up, I remembered why I had to sell everything to order an A-C back in 2009 when I met Jimmy and played his basses for the first time.

In the end it's a priviledge to have both brands!

And to Dan, oh man... Don't say KBP cause that's the one I want next... Oh man, my poor wife.

I'm also down to just my AC's now. Just sold my LowEnd, which like the Fbass is a great bass, but the tone of the AC is what does it for me also. When you have the right bass, it makes you wanna play bass more!

Guys,

My new LM5 is coming really soon. The specs are really similar to the one I have... so I'm thinking I may trade this one for another AC. Does anyone have an AC5 they want to trade?

I'd even be open to an LM5 in another color... Two natural LM5 Deluxes just seems a little redundant!

This one is dead mint and weighs around 10.5 lbs.

Thanks

Joel that is GORGEOUS, wish i had an AC to trade for this.

On another note i love what Jimmy is doing with this. Very cool, i was having my early morning coffee and checking this out, makes you want to move out to CALIFORNIA.

Ahhh, ok, I had to turn the quality up. Just curious tho... is it just plain etched in there, or is there like some silver paint in there too? Could be a light reflection thing if not, but it looks like it's got silver in there. Looks cool either way, but if it doesn't, maybe that'd be a cool option!
