#569 (Agreed!) ShirazBop - Can't go wrong with Fender American Standard J & P basses.

That's nice, TC. I have a build going with Jazz body, MM + J pickups. It won't be as pretty as yours, though.

Thank you, 1bassleft. But I believe that it will be beautiful as well. After all, it is your bass, and I want to see pictures of it when ready.

Sign me up for the 5-string club! I guess since I got another 5-stringer that I'm permanently a B-stringer.

Here's my new Mary Kaye Ray35 that I received on Friday from BassCentral!

IMO, FWIW, YMMV, here's the 5 5ers in this current thread of yours that I wished were mine (mirror imaged for me). No offence to anyone not showing; I'm betting I've had to make some difficult scratches by the time I finish this post. No particular order 'cept maybe of posting:

honorable mentions to:

just missed at the last, the MIM Jazz 5s in sunburst+tort, the lovely Cort and the Ray35 immediately above. Why did I limit it to 5

My Jackson js3v may I have a number?

Hi, here's my Vintage V905 not as nice as some of the basses posted on here but, it plays and sounds brilliant for my first 5 string.

TCaetano (Already #545) - Looks great!
Grateful (Already #90) - Wilkins! Must be sweet.
1bassleft - There are a lot of incredible basses here. (Check Part 1 of the 5-string Club thread as well, if you want to see more.)

#570 Cyborg - The finish on that Ray35 is amazing.
#571 cliff em all - Nice Jackson!
#572 Ricksflynn - Hey, don't sell your bass short. It looks mighty fine. Anyway, I've always considered the equation of great tone to be 70% the player, 15% the bass, 15% the amp.

I wish there were more 5 strings available with the P-J pickup combination.

Thanks mate! I'm really happy with the sound i'm getting so far, and finding new sounds the more i play around. The next purchase is a Head and cabinet, which i already have a few ideas on and then add to my collection again!

I love that combination, It was something i was looking for when I purchased it. I play near the bridge so it gives me the sound I want.

+1 for the P/J combination in a 5'er!

LOVE IT! Very similar in colour to the 4 string I used to own!

Thanks! I'm definitely digging it.
