    Are you adept at playing 5 string? It will really improve your flexibility if you can play a 5. It's a difficult switch but some woodshedding will do the trick. Now that I play 5 string it's very hard for me to think in 4 string terms.

    Hi Rhys

    Beautiful SR5 however I would be very wary of bidding for basses in Europe. Even living in the UK I have found that the prices tend to be much higher than in the USA and consequently I bought my SR5 from there rather than mainland Europe. In the end it's all down to exchange rates and the strengths of the respective currencies.
