Yeah the Yamaha humbuckers from around then were awesome. My MB has them too and it sounds fantastic.

Amazing instrument. Well, I’m a bit on the budget side, but when I become more professional and in need of a better bass, I’ll consider buying one of these maybe. I didn’t even know about them, thanks for showing!

So I’ve been teasing on the upgrades channel but today I picked up a 5 string Ibanez GSR205.

It’s a 5 string or as I explained to my wife, “This let’s me play songs in Japanese” (since all the Japanese tunes I love use 5 strings)

Holy crap does this thing howl! It sounds better than the 5 string Sterling Stingray I used to have and it feels 5lbs lighter. The strings are closer together but that comes with a 5 I guess.

I think the gauge on these strings is thicker too. Soo much MEAT!

Anyway, my B day is on the 28th so I’ll just call this an early (and cheap) present.

Now to work on selling a bass or 2. There can be only one @Al1885 and his collection is waaayy better than mine!

Wow nice

Hi all! My first post and my first and (at the moment) only bass. Fender Player Jazz bass. I bought this one year ago when I switched from playing guitar to bass. :grin:

I got one problem thought. I mostly love this bass: The neck, the feel, playability etc. BUT! I kinda hate the colour! :grimacing: Every time I pick up this bass I think about black limited edition Fender J-bass which was my other option. I tested both and after a short consideration something made me choose this candy apple red one. :face_with_peeking_eye:

Please help me like this bass!:joy:

Have you considered changing the pick guard?
There are plenty of options available for a Fender Jazz Bass.

Fingerprints.

Black basses are cool and all but you better bring an extra polishing cloth or 2.

I was thinking the same. I like the red but I think I’d personally like it more with a black pick guard.
