quick northern CA intro
Hi everybody, I just joined the forum over the weekend and wanted to introduce myself. You can find out who I am and why I'm here in my profile, but basically I have been thinking about getting a 6-string bass. I am mainly a 4-string player, but I also play a little guitar (though I try not to! ), even littler mandolin, as well as "baritone" style basses (I've got one of the MIJ Fender Bass VI reissues and an Alembic baritone currently tuned A-A). I own a bunch of basses, almost all of them pre-'80s - my current favorites are a '67 Guild Starfire I and '85 Alembic Exploiter. I don't play professionally, but I record my own stuff - the bass is the main instrument in all of it - check out my MySpace page if you're interested.
Anyway, I still keep thinking about a 6-string! Played some Zon 5-strings - not sure how I feel about those. Played a pretty nice Spector USA bolt-on 6-string. And of course, I've been drooling over the pictures at kensmithbass.com!!! So I'm researching and looking and thought I should register here as well. I'm pretty sure I want 34" scale. Not sure about neck-width and string spacing. Like I said, I've got a bunch of basses and enjoy the differences between them, both sound- and feel-wise. Well, that's enough from me for now - I might have some more questions later!
