wow , Thanks James for giving us bassist a forum of our own, Thank you 
Any of you guys tried the beat up music man sabre in guitar connection? I have tried it out for 10 mins, the tone is great for slap and pop, but the price is very steep too .
Cheers

I think it is black , but the back of the bass is very season due to belt buckel scrapping , but it is still a very good bass, if I tried it a while more, might end up buying it.

About $1500, sorry , I do not know whether it is ernie ball or pre-ernie ball. First time touching a music man bass and now gasing for music man stingray

well, ernie ball basses has the word 'ernie ball' on it. pre ernies have just the 'musicman' logo
but $1500 seems ok... but must see the condition first lah.

yeah la, the lower horn is cut for the anorexic. On days when i'm slimmer can still try to play sitting... How you find the slap coutour switch though?
nice
but its more like a pickup selector than slap contour switch ?
dunno .. its just like guitar , flick here flick there , unlike those EMGs with active preamps which require u to pull the knobs up
the cort curbow is very very playable , easy on the ears too but body a tad too small .. the ebony fretboard is also gorgeous and it sports a luthite neck

LOL, 3notes, the ampeg SVT-4 Pro.
I went down to Yamaha just now, no more SVT-810E cab leh... how? :?
Curbow's fretboard is ebony?
I thought it was artifical thingy... like what 3notes told me, synthetic or something. Sure doesn't feel like wood to me.

My turn!
Heh. You guys are all for the historical stuffs.
Tried and tested, tried and tested.
Hey, Imma looking for a bass that gives brilliantly sweet highs and good warm lows at the same time, with much note clarity. Mmm.. something with at least 24 frets.
You guys have any ideas?

the swee lee one had a sticker that said luthite neck. luthite neck not = to luthite fretboard if i m not mistaken. hmmz , besides , the fretboard dosent have open grains e.g like rosewood or anything. its a uniform one piece black glossy hardwood. looked very much like ebony and should be ebony if i m not mistaken. touch feels like wood too .
