It' s really dark on that stage, but You could still see nice maple fretboard, black dots and frets on it, right?
That's one of reasons I prefer maple FB!
Mighty bass and amplification!

Thanks guys. It's a great privilege to be able to play an ernie ball bass. I usually don't keep basses very long, I get bored and want something new. But this SR5 is special.be thankful for your musicmans. A lot of people are not as fortunate as us to be able to have such fine basses as these. Happy thanksgiving to everyone

What colour is your SR5 = even though it's a dark stage it looks v shiny and purple?
PS I also love my SR5H - it is a classic instrument IMO and can excel with most genres

Having been blasting away with the Bongo 4H most rehearsals recently I went along yesterday with the SR5HH. Man, what a sound, centre switch, both H's on for a fantastic boingy slap sound on a new tune we're working on and then get the pick out (which I don't usually play with at all) for a song written by our singer which needed a really raunchy grinding hard rock sound - turned the bass up a bit, boosted the subs out of the Ashdown and wow off we went. Used my cheating trick of a guitar wah pedal pushed all the way down to grind the upper freqs a bit but still leave the bass clear but even without that it rocked - amazing.
Love the SR5.
