#47 is comin' back home! It figures as soon as I got rid of my last 4-string, the need for a 4-string arose. Regardless, I was foolish to let that bass go, and now it's gonna stay for good!

Ken, from Reverend, just told me that they have a Houser they are going to be selling, with a hard case. All freshly setup! Just give him a call over at Rev before it hits the bay!

Sweet. Looks like you were meant to stay together. Those early ones have killer tone from the KAs.

They look even better in person! My Bugeye Spy is regular chrome...it's coming from the Windy City...I traded my Fish for a R5L, (exact finish/neck) & sold my SRS Houser, so this XL will complete the USA bass cycle, for myself...I still have that great RPJ!

Well, it's been a long time since I've had a Rev, but I just picked up my new (to me!) BH5. Don't know if there's numbers anymore, but if so, I'm in. Now that I have one again, I will be sticking around for a while!
The tapewounds are new for me, I typically like roundwounds, and of late, DR Sunbeams - but I'm gonna give these the ol' college try - so far they are cool, we'll see how they work out with the band at rehearsal on Tuesday.
Thanks for sanwin17 for holding on to this for me
! Forgot how much I liked these basses, and the BH5 is just too cool! Crappy cell photos will have to do for now - and they really don't do the bass justice - but I know, I know... No photos, no bass!

^Nice BH5... just like the way mine used to be 
These are such great basses for the $$ you just cant go wrong with a BH5... i call it the 'big fish.'
long scale, wide FB and dual coils = HUGE tone and Im totally jealous of your tuxedo case. want!

Yea, I am really happy I have a 'fish again. The tuxedo Rev case just sealed the deal. Still has some of the paperwork, the sticker and the Allen key in the little ziplock baggie labeled: "B HOUSER". Sanwin17 is a really great guy, if he was selling something I was wanting and I had the cash, I would not hesitate to do business with him again.
The only problem with having a Reverend again is it turns what was previously mere curiosity about a Rev 4-string PJ into G.A.S.!!

Rev PJ's are awesome. It's my "you're going to have to pry it out of my cold, dead hands" bass
Thanks. 60 is a good number.
Well I won't really be able to consider another larger purchase til probably Spring, but if I was to think about s 4-string PJ, it would have to have a maple FB! For some reason, that's how I see it in my head, whether its a fish PJ or another company.

Hmm. So my long scale D'Addario Chrome flats don't make it all the way to the nut on the BH5. I end up with something like 3/16" hanging on the wrong side of the nut. I should have known. 35" scale = extra long scale!
Still though, I wonder... will a little bit of that fabric that they wrap the ends of the string with be a real issue? Anyone, thoughts?
