For all you players looking for a twist to your bottom line, look no further than the MB-4 and MB-5. Sportin’ a solid body, Maple neck and Rosewood fingerboard, these instruments put a non-traditional spin on the bass. The P/J-bass pickup configurations and passive EQ give these 4- and 5-string basses a crunch and punch all their own. The MB4 and MB5 have attitude to spare, and come in a trio of metallic finishes. This is the Black Cherry Burst model (not black metallic as pictured)

squier mb5

Rating: 10/10

I bought this guitar a few weeks ago and i had a toss up between this 5 string bass and another one. I played both bass's on the same amp (hartke 2x10,1x15 and i think a 400w amp).

As i was playing i was listening to the sound they produced playing different styles like slapping jazz funk rock. They both admitably sounded amazing but for the wider range the mb5 came out tops the sound it gave when slapping was crisp and the low b sounds sweet (and it can knock a few pictures off the wall).

The look of it was much nicer than any of the bass's they had in store i have got the red in the middle fading out into black.

The bass at this price i think is a bargain as it can play a variety of styles and for the look and sound it is a steal and i would happily pay around £500 for this and paying £240 i think is a steal.
