Fender 5string jazz Bstring

[funkStrat_97]

One of 8....

The five-on-a-side peghead doesn't look bad, but some people feel that it makes for a neck heavy intrument.

I never liked the 5 in line array! 4+1 or 5+2 (Like my Lakland) I like!

What are all the possible arrangements for a 5 string?


5 inline
4+1
3+2
2+3
1+4
5 inline but the tuners are on the opposite side?



Also does anyone make a 1+4? or a 2+3?

Yes.....but then, I specifically ordered it that way

looks like I have some digging to do to find that picture you uploaded showing all your basses.

Just in case many of you are looking to get the fender american 2010 they are $1699 on Americanmusical.com OR 5 easy payments of $340 and they send it to you immediately after the first payment no interest no wait!!!!

Anybody own one yet? I'm thinking hard on the all natural I hate to be one that mis bad as my luck is.

The G & L's also come in a 3 + 2.

Yeah, there's a ton of 3+2 headstocks.  I've owned Alembic, Roscoe, Ken Smith, and Lakland 3+2 headstock designs.  I think Yamaha and Ibanez are also 3+2.

There's just not a lot of 2+3.  The only 2+3 I recall seeing before I ordered mine was MTD 535.

I don't think the Nordies were the problem. Had to be the pre-amp. I have Nordies in my JO5 and they kill!

No bro it was the pickups, because I've tried them in my 74 Jazz Bass( that has no preamp) and I ended up going with Jason Lollars

Are you sure the Marcus was a 'true' bypass?? I owned one and if the battery went dead, the bass wouldn't play in passive either. I believe these new Deluxes will play in passive if the battery goes dead!

well not really,however I rewired it the way it should've been ( @ least to me !) in the 1st place,and now I can play the bass in Passive mode ( which is most of the time)and use my tonal controls while the bass is in passive or active mode
