Do you ever take more than one? For example, for gigs when you need a bass with flats and another with rounds?

Absolutely if that’s what the gig requires.
But I’d say that most if the gigs I do, my 4 string with flats gets the call. I mainly play blues and old school R&B.
But I try to be versatile enough to play whatever is appropriate for the genre and/or gig. With an emphasis on TRY lol
They truly do have different voices though
 
what is your fingerboard made of? The trans white one is my second favorite of my basses. She is very light for a 5er and speaks with great authority.
I also had Luminlay markers installed on her ;)

It’s natural ash and maple fb with black block inlays. We could also do a body swap if you’re up for that, so you could have an all natural set. Just message me brother!

I've just noticed this on my combustion... no idea when and how that happened. Any ideas on how to fix this? Needless to say I don't have the 2 missing inlays...

Hey guys and ladys,

I have a wonderful NG3, but the last position with all 3 Pickups together is a bit of a overkill during a Set. I like to play the pos. 2 with pick and the 4th pos. with fingers.
Is it possible to wire the second position (Bridge and Middle) in Serial so the volume push / drop is not sooo extreme.

You could switch to the 3x switch which would give you that. You’d lose middle solo’d but gain B/n as a bonus.
