** NEW ARRIVAL ** If there's any one thing on this earth that Musicman got right, it was the Stingray bass. These instruments have been feared across bassland since 1976 and although Ernie Ball eventually bought the ...details

 If you want a bass that is.......easy to play, made of Luthite, lightweight, a cool color, has a great rock, funk, or jazz tone, inexpensive, says "Ibanez" on the front, has a funky shape, in almost unplayed condition, a great bang for your buck and ...details

 I've played everything in the bass world from Ken Smith to Ritters but for some reason, I keep going back to this rare Ibanez 5 when I want a killer, cutting bass tone. The twin EMG's in this bass produce a bright, punchy tone that helps me fight off...details

 Talk about a rare beast- this Spector SD-5 is one of only 51 ever made and man, does it ever make some noise. The twin soapbar EMG's are powerful and the world- famous "Spector growl" is oh- so- present in spades! I've owned over 25 Spectors and this...details

 Tell you why we bought this bass- it's tone. Now I know that there is a great debate among Tobias owners about the "Gibson/ pre- Gibson" thing, but to be frank, I didn't care about that when I first played this bass and I still don't. Whomever...details

 Rudy Sarzo is a true journeyman bassist and I think he played with almost every major artist in the 80's and 90's. Heck, I even saw him with Yngwie Malmsteen at the Masquerade Theater years ago and if he can play with that guy, he can play with anybo...details
