  1. attack goat does look good, but according to some things iv read, mainly at talkbass, the blend isnt very effective, so i think it soundsss at though it loses bottom end, but actaully really doesnt, if that makes sense, probably not

    theres a ex demo one for sale for £350 somewere which i thought looked good, think they are sold without pickup, they are £89 new seperatly
  3. [quote name='thedonutman' post='202465' date='May 19 2008, 10:06 PM']Is it me or does this look very similar to a Tanglewood Canyon, but with more strings? [url="http://www.dv247.com/assets/products/38959_l.jpg"]http://www.dv247.com/assets/products/38959_l.jpg[/url] Right down to the fretboard end design....... Maybe they are actually made by the same people but just branded differently? It looks very nice though, I'd probably buy it if I had the money right now [/quote] interesting that, the hudson seems to retail for double the price of the tanglewood too, id like to hear the differences!

    blimey, thats quality, never expected it to be that good how much you get it for?
  5. people keep comparing this to wood and graphite they do make a difference in my opinion, as that part of the structure of the bass, effect tension tone playability and loads of factors. i also think the lacuered fretboards make a difference too. but i stick my guns and says that unlacqured rosewood and maple boards have pretty much no difference in tone, its all about electronics, scale, and the main mass material of the bass
  6. its stunning, and id never sell it if i could afford to
  7. too true, i just fitted a beautiful precision neck to my parts built jazz
  8. i know, im terrible, i never seem to be happy!
  9. ah my bad, il learn to read the full post next time haha
  10. just a FEELER at the moment, i need to try n raise funds to buy a lovely bass, so i just wanna see if id be able to sell this. BRILLIANT 6 string, see my member status <<<<<<< , lightest bass iv ever played, let alone 6 string, and has a massivly versitile pre with a brilliant pickup. The B string is one of the best iv played, especially for a 34" bass, and the tone is very even on all strings. abosultly gorgeous as you can see, beautiful spalt maple top thats 2 and a half CM in places, On top of mahagony and maple sandwiched neck and mahagony wings. Thru-neck design. Flame veneer headstock and a fantastic compressed Ebony fingerboard which is a dream to play! Fully active with a superb 3 band preamp with adjustable poteintimeter inside (sorry spelling!). currently strung with an overwater custom set strings, super light guage 110-30 i think Bass costs £599 new from cranes music shop, who appear to be the only stockists. Selling what i bought it for, £210 collection from bristol, £230 shipped by parcelforce, £236 shipped by APC insured shipping, your choice. as said, its a feeler, it all depends if i can afford the rest of the cash cheers
  11. there is a geddy neck for sale on here
  12. that sadowsky is incredibly tempting, il have to get back to you on that, chances are it will be sold within the next hour though
  13. well its out, and imo overpriced, anyone gunna take the plunge n buy one?? i cant see me ever spending £125 on it, i was hoping it would be cheaper than the blowtorch, but alas. found it for £109 at one place, and that link above is at £85, but both are out of stock, and no doubt when they are back in they will mark their prices up with the likes of dv and a few others opinions?
  14. if someone has two pretty much identical basses, only one with maple and one with rosewood, then post a sound sample here, and see how many correctly guess which one is which
  15. hmm, just seems to take away the body of the tone, i thought it would be more transparant than that
  16. nice, very nice, neck looks delightful
  17. that english muffin sound sample has put me right off it, seems to totally suck tone away when engaged?? or are my pc speakers being particulary sh*te today
  18. [quote name='ahpook' post='201643' date='May 18 2008, 06:18 PM']you should just put that in your sig bmk...save yourself some typing [/quote] i dunno why i bother Boss should pay me i think, i try hard enough!
  19. just the tone i think, wood ressonating and all that sh*t.... bollox really, i dont personally believe the fretboard has the slightest effect on tone, and id like to challenge anybody who has good enough hearing to tell the difference between the two
