Anonymous You want a bass player to switch to a 5 string?? So you actually only want a 5 string bassist. That is some funny ass shit. I wish you nothing but the best, but to get on here and ask for a 5 string bassist. Do you only want it because of the look?? Or because of the low end?? If you havent noticed, those key thingy's on the head of a bass turn left or right, which then makes the string or strings go low or high. Now, you have to be careful which way you turn the key, because it depends on which way you wound the string (clockwise or counter clockwise). I play bass, and I am a good bassist, but i cant play for you pros, because i dont have the ability to go out and get a 5 string bass. But i do have one of them special bass's which can tune low or high, go figure! - Thu, 15 May 2003 3:37pm
Anonymous Have you ever tried tuning your four string to low B? It sounds like shit, and the intonation is way out. - Thu, 15 May 2003 3:56pm

Anonymous Tuning Low B can be done on a good bass with heavy strings. I do so myself in a lot of our tunes. What your ad should say is.........
