The thing is that i dont like how big the neck is.. I have a 4 string bass

But a 5 string is no problem. i just dont get how i cant stand a 6 string bass' neck

lol

Totally understand,player. I had am SR506 Ibanez for a few mouths. I now have the Curbow. And i spend most of my time. Playing a Traben 5ST and my 56 Fender basses. But i try to play a 6ST at least one time a week.

I really like the playability of the Curbow. The pick up is set so i only have to barely play it, if i hit it to hard it sounds muddy. Only bass set that way but i like it, even though i play more of a banging style. When the band gets going faster.

Is that bass tiny or are you particularly large, or is it the large neck making it look smaller by contrast?

[universalrenote]

I Hope my wife thinks so!. But really to body is smaller than most basses.I have large hands, so the neck is no problem. But she is one heavy bass. The 3rd hour of playing was rough. Not sure, i think i will pull out a old Fender for half our sets. When we start playing out.

And Cort, now does not make a 6string anymore.

Had $299.99 on her. I played this before threw a $hitty amp. When it was at a different pawnshop. I like this over the Ibanez SR506 i had before. I want a 6string to add to the mix. I am learning all my songs with the B sting over the higher notes. They took off 10% so i put her on layaway.

I'm convinced that strings are 40% of the bass sound : change the strings, you change the bass.

i luv these basses, but im not sure if there available in left handed. anyone know?

[meatflowers]

played one of these, wasn't personally impressed. although the neck is VERY thin and playable, it's nopt that hard at all for a 6

[deathmetalmachine]

were did you get that cort curbow i want it

[WolfLikeLamb]

a lot of people say that little horn is annoying to play when sitting down...some even say it hurts.

what's your insight on this?

[Pixsle]

ill pay no more than $50 for it.

[gr00veN1k1]

Total crap. The tone is in the head, then in the hands. And then comes amp, strings..and so on.

[OliRancidTen]

it doesnt have a over large neck, the body is just very small!

Got the 5-string version that I wanted of this amazing bass. In metallic red, used and has the old Mighty Mite pickup. I think I have the old, old one because with mine you can adjust the eq while the slap switch is on or off. I plan to change the Mighty Mite out for a Bartolini sometime soon.

So far, the only problem I have with this bass is that it cannot take a .130 guage B string, but oh well.
