Jeff,
Ya know? I don't think I'm going to attempt this...I can just see myself really screwing it up and I REALLY like what you've done with your previous 4-2-5 conversions so when I get the Fireglo and the $$ together I'll get in touch with you.

Barry....Jeff has this down to an art form. I've played all of his conversions and they have come out very nicely, I don't think you will be disappointed.

Yeah...they all do look like works of art. At first I was like "I can handle this no problem!" but the more I thought about it last night and this morning the more I was convinced to leave it in the hands of the experienced.

From what I've seen.... you've made the right call. I'm not a 5-string player but I tend to think that 5 minutes with one of Jeff's 4-2-5's would bring on uncontrollable GAS! Image
What do you mean the Bass is too loud???
