Does Not Compute: $139 SX Mahogany 6 String with Set Neck

[baba]

It appears to be active as I see what looks like a battery box, but it doesn't mention that in the listing. Wonder if there is a preamp hiding in there?

"Three band EQ plus volume and balance controls for lots of sound variation"

I guess the funky knob is a blend knob...?

UH oh, weighing the pro con of buying it, vs my wife's reaction to buying another bass...

Uh

Uh

I think this is about to be purchased.

I just wish I could see the damn pics on my work computer. I'm SERIOUSLY thinking about it but based solely on what I can read, with no regard for what I cant see! Nevermind the fact that I've never tried a 6er before either.

I know this much, I have an SX PJ that my wife got me for Christmas a few years back. Its not a GREAT bass, but it is a great value and definitely giggable.

It looks like a trans-red mahogany spector clone.

With an MM pup at the bridge and an angled J pup at the neck.

What he said. Angle is down on the left (BEA) and up on the right (DGC).

Bridge is made of those individual bridge/saddle pieces. Tuners have triangular tuning keys. 5 knobs.

...and a Spector style headstock.

Maybe thats why this is so cheap. First in a line of soon-to-be-sued spector clones.

Looks like it might have one heck of a neck dive...

I'm down to own one. I've got a defretted neck thru one off with MEC gold active J pups 5'er that I would gladly trade for one.

pick-up config looks more Warwick than Spector

 

[Shawn Luckman]

Reminds me of the Warwick P-NUT signature bass a little.

 

[Swampman Cory]

Holy wow.

 

[devilock76]

I just put my Cort Curbow on CL to see what type of bites I might get on that before going for this.

[ack]

I got one ordered.
I've never played a 5 or a 6 before, but this is too interesting to pass up.

 

[stepswork4me]

I can't believe I'm actually jealous of those that are gettin' 'em! Damn this fretless!

 

[SubSectorSucker]

there are only 4 left. For those that want em, get crackin!

 

[Old Joe]

Done.

Just hope this doesn't turn out to be my first Rondo return.

 

[peledog]

Look familiar?
