The SR605E-CTF is a seriously impressive bass for the money. Those Nordstrand pickups give you a modern, aggressive sound that cuts through a mix, while the jatoba/walnut neck keeps things comfortable. This is a great choice for players wanting a versatile 5-string with a premium feel without a premium-priced tag.
