General

If you're looking for a 5-string bass, there are a lot of models to choose from. However, if you're looking for a 5-string bass that stands out in looks and is affordable as well, then your search will narrow down pretty quickly to the ESP LTD. This is the Stream 205 in vibrant white with ESP-designed SB-5 humbuckers and an active tone control. It's a striking instrument that boasts an impressive performance.

Sturdy construction

The body shape of the Stream 205 is unique for ESP, yet just as stylish and timeless as any of their well-made instruments. Its ergonomic cutaway allows easy access to the highest frets. Its body is made of mahogany and the neck, which has a rosewood fretboard with 21 jumbo frets, is made of maple. All this adds up to a solid foundation for a great bass guitar.

ESP-designed electronics

The pickups and electronics of the Stream-205 were designed by ESP, the company of which LTD is a subsidiary. The two ESP-designed SB-5 active humbucker pickups produce a powerful signal with high output that can be adjusted via the ESP-designed ABQ-2S preamp with active 2-band tone control and bass plus treble potentiometers. A third knob controls the overall volume.
