Does Not Compute: $139 SX Mahogany 6 String with Set Neck
- Thread starter Legattabass
- Start date
Sorry, I'm not a fan of the look. But it IS a hot deal! And look, it's a 5 string that is "A 6-String Bass at an Incredible price!" LOL
Just pulled the trigger on that 5 string Spector wanna be @ Rondo... I already own the Ursa 5 string and it is a wonderful bass for the ca$h... I will follow up with a review..
Funny thing with some of you... Buy an otherwise $500 - $800 bass anywhere else for only only $150 shipped @ Rondo and then bitch about a scratch in the paint or junk nut... How can you bitch about those things and then say your sending it back.. thats just ignorant imho

If all of you would please wait until I get paid tomorrow, I will buy it. 
I know you won't. Feel guilty about depriving me of that Sxtor.

He needs to start ordering more than 5 products at a time. There's at LEAST 15 people on Talkbass. Right? Have a heart, Kurt.
Here is a link to the control panel diagram / tone controls layout for those of you that may be a little confused about what knob does what =)
Just bought one! Thanks a lot to bassacechase for the sound clip. I don't think I would have bought it without hearing that.

Oh, cool! Thanks!
I agree with your thought at its root, I just don't feel as extreme as you do. I think it'd be strange for me to return a $150 bass because the frets are sharp or the finish is uneven or paint is missing, because I didn't pay for those nice qualities.
It depends on what you're willing to put up with. The Spector-like one I ordered had a few problems I was okay with but the dent on the fingerboard was a deal breaker for me. It's not something I want to try my hand at repairing, if that was even possible.
The Jazz I ordered has a nick on the finish at the base of the neck and I just discovered a shim. At this price I'm OK with that. Even if it needs some work. I just took it apart to shield the cavities and will change the pots to eliminate some of the noise (it's a Jazz anyway).
I would not say it's ignorant. If you buy something and are not happy with the product for whatever reason, why keep it?
Got it in today. Very impressed. Just had to adjust the bridge action, tune it and it was playing like a beauty. Very easy to play too, easier than my 5.
Here's mine. Pardon the crappy cellphone pic.
I managed to scratch the hell out of the control plate while modding it for parallel/series which I'm still working on. Will probably replace the control plate later on.
What I want to know is, what about that case?
Is that one of the new Rondo cases?
It's one of their current cases on their site. What do you want to know about it?
