Kids were napping, so haven't had a chance to crank it yet...

niiiiiiice!!!

 

[Figjam]

Shexay. Making me want a white fretless sterling even more.

 

[azzy_wazzy]

Mmm that is classy!

 

[tkarter]

That thing will probably break the windows all out and stuff you crank the amp and hit the B string

Nice looking SR5 there for sure. Congrats.

I've never considered a white bass, and then GAS strikes.

 

[Psychicpet]

gorgeous!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


now where's that Capt.Stubing hat......

 

[drgroovenstein]

White indeed! Actually it is closer to a vintage white. Not sure what the Fender equivalent would be, but it is definitely not arctic white.

Sounding pretty good through the headphones. This is actually the first time I have gotten to play an H/H SR5. I have played some H/S SR5s, and I can honestly say they are quite different beasts.

Oh hey, is the case candy supposed to include adjustement tools?

Tools? Who needs tools?

BP has said that musicians should not be trusted with tools, or words to that effect.


No, it doesn't come with tools (at least mine didn't). The saddle height screws take a 1/16" allen key, the saddle length adjusters take a standard Philips screwdriver, and the trussrod wheel takes whatever fits.

Wonderful! A real beauty
I am really happy to see black PU covers work so nicely with that combo.

Ok, I'll use the tools from my OLP

Now that is a nice piece of bass.

 

[barkatozz]

[Mobay45]

what if you're a musician who makes a living from using tools on guitars and basses ?

LOL that one bites a little on owning the best basses built.

My SR5 had an allen wrench with it. Must have been Jim at Mass street music that decided it should have one. I don't know.

I fix my own cars and I fix my own basses.

Ain't had to do no fixing on my MM basses yet other than pulling the bridges back for intonation.

You just may have a very good point though, but don't try to torque no wheels down with the Chinese allen wrench.
