Hi everybody!
Well, I have nothing against clubs...
Here's my list:

Fender Precision '63
Fender Jazz '69
Fender Jazz/Precision '78
W&T Chronos Klimt Single Cut 5-string 33"
W&T Custom Single Cut 5-string 34"
W&T Ergon Alvistar 5-string (my signature) 34"
Nordy vJ5 (ash, maple/maple)
Celinder Update 5 (ash, maple/maple)
MTD 535 (ash, maple/rosewood)
MTD 535 (korina, wenge)
OmCustom 4-string fretted
Washburn AB20 Acoustic Bass Guitar
Acoustic Fretless Bass Guitar w Flatwounds

It was a bit longer list but I sold recently 5 basses.
 
Well, this Nordy is the most comfortable bass in my collection. The playability is unbelievable. It's 34,5", very light Ash body and Maple/Maple neck with white binding and pearloid blocks. The pickups are Big Singles and the pre is 3-band Audere. I changed the strings to DR Marcus Miller set and this bass is truely amazing.
Usually it's a bit uncomfortable to slap on 5-string but this one feels like it was 4-string.
I strongly suggest everybody to try out the Nordy! Great experience. :hyper:
