Which SX!?

[AustinxHxC]

I am about to order a new SX!!
But I am having a hard time deciding which one I like better asthetically.
The Natural Ash with White neck and pg or Black???
So I am letting the Talkbass community pick the one that they like better.

OR

P.S. I might splurge for the LTD if White wins!

Definately white blocks.

Splurge for the LTD, I have one on the way as we speak.

I voted for white with white, because this is one of my favorite basses:

Definitely go for the LTD. You will not be sorry.

Well White is winning so far, but we'll see how it goes.
BTW, I'd just take off the Ashtray Covers anyway.

EDIT: And to DeanT..... WOW!

How much does that weigh?

 

[DeanT]

My LTD weighs about 8.5 pounds. Not too heavy, considering it's ash and has a honking huge bridge.

Whichever you choose, go for a LTD version. They really are worth the extra bucks. The fit and finish is miles ahead of the regular SX basses. I love mine.

That is what I like most, but was not yet available from SX.
So I did it myself:

White blocks with black pickguard. Just go to the parts and bodies section. You can even get a tort guard if you wish.

That's what I said: "I did it myself"!

However this classical version (only recently as a Fender MIM 70ies Classic reissue newly availabe) is an interesting niche!!!

That is what I like most, but that special model was not yet available from SX.
So I did it myself :

with spare parts from Rondo Music

Carrot Black FTW.

 

[ProfGumby]

I voted Carrot....

I have a Squier VM with the black blocks and black pg
I have an SX with the white blocks and white pg...

I like them both, but lately the SX has been getting most of the playing time....such as I play.

My advice, buy one of each! It won't cost much more then the Squier and then you can play whatever you like!

Although, the white one is the LTD series and the fretwork is supposed to be much nicer than the rest. My SX is not an LTD and I had the fretwork done. FYI

Go with the white. It looks better imo.

I vote white on white. Looks classy.
