SX SJB 6-string Jazz Bass?

[shannons]

So guys, what do ya think? Who'd like to see Rondo Music come out with a SX 6-string Jazz Bass? I don't think this has ever been done before...has it?

Just imagine this as a sixer. Mmmmm....

 

[i_got_a_mohawk]

All they could do is make a suggestion to the manufacturers, rondo dont make SX.

 

[shannons]

Maybe so. But several of us at sevenstring.org suggested a Agile 7-string guitar & boom! Now there are several to choose from! Kurt is awesome when it comes to getting what the customers want.

Kurt has power to get things done, you asked for short scales boom done, you asked for bound and blocked necks boom done, you asked for better bridges and tuners boom new LTD models.

If there is demand it can be done.

 

[Aarix]

Yeah that would be awesome. I'm not sure if I'd buy one... But it would be very cool.

i'd buy an essex 6'er, i started a thread on if its possible to make a 5'er into a 6'er with a new neck and all that stuff

And from all those suggestions they make all the money.

If you guys suggest to them that they should make a 6 string J bass and they agree,then you guys should be compensated some type of way(if nothing else at least a killer break on the cost).

Ask for that.

I'd go for a six. Heck, I'd even go for a seven if they want to get really radical!

JAUQO III-X is right on the money (pardon the pun). If SX take your suggestions and comes out with a sixer (or any other bass suggested here), the least Kurt can do is knock off some bucks from the price for TBers. After all, it's because of us that he would make whatever profit he makes on the bass in question.

Well, I got an email reply back from Kurt. He said "I have been trying to get SX to make a 6 string for years now.
I hope to have a Douglas 6 String Jazz later this fall at www.rondomusic.com however."

Here's to hoping!

there it is

 

[BassSurfer]

a petetion as stated above would be cool

 

[BassikLee]

They had another one for a while too. I seem to recall it looking even more like a Jazz than the one above, and its bridge was similar to the Kahler from a few years ago.

That's not what I'd call a jazz bass. I'm looking for one that not only has the sound, but also the traditional "look" of a Fender Jazz.

 

[Warpticon]

I'd almost certainly get it if it existed. Of course, we'd never get one lefty. :/ They're not even carrying lefty 5-string J or P basses.

 

[stanger503]

welll yea i know its not i was just replying to my own previous statement
