New Sire U5 PJ short scale model

Post by pjmuck »

Chicago Music Exchange has a few U5 Sires in stock now. Short scale, PJ combo. I'm not a short scale guy, but I dig the maple neck and finish on this one, so maybe this will tick few boxes for some of you:

Mint;

If this had rounded edges instead of body binding, I would have loved that mint green one. I really don't like Jazz Basses with sharp bindings.
I really have shortscale GAS at the moment, but I would like something Mustang-like. I'd love an Atelier Z Baby Z PJ with competition stripes like these:

There's a more plain natural finish JJ one at NJ Guitar and Bass:
