I Pulled The Trigger On An SX Today

congrats

 

Be sure to let us know what ya think!

 

Definitely the best looking SX, IMO.

 

Very nice. I bought my third earlier today.

 

Yes, please update your with your impressions.

At that price it seems hard to go wrong.

 

Congrats! I purchased the same bass on Monday, except I got the 3TS version with the black pickguard. It arrives on Monday... I hope to post a positive review with pics once I get it set up. I plan to spend a good bit of time with it once I get it to fully evaluate and tweak!

 

just make sure the pick ups line up mine didnt an dyou can ship it back if you contact kurt.

I am sure it will be fine tho

 

Wish they made a 5 string that looked like that.

Yours had a trigger? Mine has strings....

BTW, that is the bass I have in mind in case I don't end up painting my VM Squier

 

the pick up slots were just routed off on mine so the pole pieces did not line up

 

Don't know what they look like in person but those pictures are beautiful.

Playability? Let us know.

 

I think you will be pleased with your bass and experience with Rondo. Kurt and Rondo's customer service is excellent!

Very nice bass! The pup cover and ash tray don't do a thing for me. They remind me of curb feelers on a car, but that's just my HO.

 

I have that bass. It no longer has the pickup guard and ashtray, and I put a different tort guard on. I hardly had any set up work to do, I just tightened the truss rod a little to decrease the relief. You might not have to do a thing to it. I like the stock pickups just fine, as well. I suspect you'll be happy with your purchase.

 

I think you be glad you did. I have a couple, a Tele repro, a few gig bags,cases and a neck that I should have bought 4 of.Rondo Service is excellent and the quality is not what you might think. I even have a couple of guitar friends who bought Jazz types after seeing what I did to mine.

 

How is the finish on the neck?

 

I wish rondo made "higher end" p basses

 

2 other possible reasons for pickups not lining up with the strings would be neck pocket routed improperly or bridge mounted wrong. Just something to check for when it arrives. These are a great value and if you decide to hot rod it later they get even better.
