Where Can I Buy These?

I got it in my head tonight to maybe get a 5-String Bass, I never thought 5-Strings looked cool, except for this one

I found a few options that aren't the same, but could be cool if you're looking for a five-string bass. I was wondering if what made you like this was that it is 5 in-line versus the other Fender basses that have 4 in-line and then the fifth on the other side. One of them is the latter, but it is a good red. Maybe it's the painted headstock that you like. I didn't find that, but it was fun looking at bass guitars. I'm thinking about getting my first one. I used to play a little bit on my brother's, but we don't live in the same state anymore.

Actually, I don't like 5-String Basses (I always just thought it was for people too lazy to drop to B) however I have been thinking of getting one, so why not get the first one ever made?

The only other things I really like about it is that they're odd and that nobody ever used them.

Oh I see. I'm not a fan of 5-string basses either, but looking into things that are odd or unique is always cool. I don't own any basses myself, but I have been thinking about it, especially after seeing the Music Man Stingray Special. https://impulsemusicco.com/products/music-man-stingray-special-4-h-electric-bass-aqua-sparkle

My local shop got that in, and it is tempting me every day haha.
