I care about 5 strings, my band does detune and play two tunings, one being drop C on 4 bangers and then there is the bane of my existence, drop A on a 5 string. Hard to get the heavy .145 low string here in Perth, Western Australia, hard to get speaker cabs that like the low notes..... Anyway I digress.
I've been on the hunt for a 5 string passive bass to play alongside my G3, Burns Bison and Silverburst Epi T-bird(with upgrade Rio Grande Pit bull pick-ups), as my active Spector and massively hot Warwick Rockbass$$ 5 strings feel a world away both aesthetically and tonally. Now they do this in cherry with black pickguard, it seems the hunt for this 5 string is over! Time to start saving!
