The 5-String club Part 2

Here are my 5 stringers,

Can I join please.

1. 2001 Fender Active Jazz 5 string. Excellent tone. I want to change the pickguard to white or cream. This pic was taken by the previous owner

#578 Strat Hater - When I went downstairs, it seems I forgot to turn off my PC. Thought I'd give you a number before shutting down. By the way, Fender + Ibanez are a great combination.

I agree with you on having a nice, light Ibanez. I've owned my SR885 for about 20 years now & it still sounds great. I have collected some other basses now, whose weights range anywhere from 11 - 13 Lbs (Warwick Thumb BO 6, KSD Burner Deluxe 6, & Conklin GTBD-7.) It is very nice to pick up my Ibanez sometimes even for the ease of the weight on my shoulders.

Thanks, I feel like naming them David and Goliath lol
