Got a Dean Edge Pro 5 in a trade. Can't believe the QC on this. Really nice action, and like the Bad Ass bridge

My interest is piqued

These are what I am working with at the present moment.
It's interesting that the circa 2010 Made in Japan JB75-94US on the right has the proper mid-70's bridge pickup position whereas the earlier 2005 Crafted in Japan instrument has the earlier '60s position. Both punch well above their weight class.

The photo angle does seem to make it appear mini.
I call her "Purdie". My one and only bass.

charcoal frost is such a stunning color, add some tort and BOOM! .... Gorgeous bass brother.
That's sexy. Ever since I've seen those I've kinda wanted to do that flip mute mod to something. That's like what used to be on Jaguars. I had one a long time ago with one but never thought of it in a bass application until I saw it on a SH. I dig your bass.
Good review. I find it disturbing you know the words to that song 
but lobster on.

Hahah thanks! I had the lyrics up on my monitor
... that's my story and I'm sticking to it!... Once upon a time I was falling in love... Now I'm just falling apart.. crap It's still stuck in my head.
New arrival! An original Ibanez AFR105, a dream come true! (Reissue on the left)
Not that! I try to not include unobtanium in head to heads, because you really can't get em. That would be a "OK, this bass is better but I have one and you will never own one. Nanana boo boo!". Was originally contemplating doing a head to head on my Roccos, but instead I'm just going to do separate reviews and reference the Conklin in the ESP one. For the affirmas, going to do a 3 part series reviewing each of the 3 affirma basses and talking a little bit about their history and stuff. I have an EDA905 in really great shape en route right now. I'm kind of excited to have one of the EDAs... but I used to own an Ergodyne EDB... and they just smell like mixture of wet paint and gasoline with their weird luthite/lucite bodies and finish.
Looking forward to the Affirma review.
what i'm working with so far...
