    This bass was custom built for me in 2006. It turned out perfectly and I can certainly vouch for how good it sounds. I only sold it due to injury.
  2. Kees_SoS
    How many ohms is it, and which colour?

    [i]I know what you mean when it comes to four-strings. As far as fives are concerned, I tried Scott's bass at the Overwater London Bass Day a couple of years ago, but the spacing was slightly too narrow for me, so I'm going with 17mm on my new Original Series. I wanted to post a pic of it here, but I keep receiving an error message that I've exceeded my 30MB limit, despite the file being a lot smaller.[/i] [quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1419615342' post='2641315'] No. Same spacing as Mr. Devine, 16.5mm. Very comfortable to play on a fiver. Somehow for me 16.5mm looks a bit odd on a four string so I'm happy with 19mm on a four. [/quote]

    Beautiful example. Looks like you've gone for a slightly wider string spacing than Scott. Is that the case? 1[quote name='BassBus' timestamp='1399204784' post='2442012'] Just picked up this beauty from Overwater yesterday.

    [quote name='lowpainter' timestamp='1412757933' post='2571596'] I have at least one picture with me and the Blue 5string Overwater. But where.........Tried to find it but until now nothing. Question of time :-) What kind of Overwater will it be, the one you've ordered ? [/quote] An Original Series five-string with a 34" scale and custom 17mm string spacing. It will be finished in a translucent black stain with a high-gloss finish.

    That's one I've never seen before. Do you perhaps have a few photos you could share? It seems more Overwaters have made their way over to the Netherlands than I thought, soon to be joined by my new five-string fretted, which is still under construction. [quote name='lowpainter' timestamp='1411892794' post='2563500'] Hi guys, Well, the blue 5string original I had in the eighties was my first 5 string bass ! I ordered it directly from Chris at Overwater. Should not have sold it, but then again: lots of basses I have had the pleasure of playing, I should have kept. Sometimes the gas is playing tricks with your mind if you get me.:-) I'm in the race for an original at this moment. Very nice basses ! I love the shape ! Nels ( lowpainter ) [/quote]

    Further price drop to GBP 1350! (I must be mad!)

    The bass is now back with me in Amsterdam.
  9. Kees_SoS
    The bass will be back with me, in Amsterdam, as of [b]Tuesday, 15 April[/b].

    Beautiful! I own an '80 rosewood StingRay in walnut. Prior to that, I had an '80 Sabre with the exact same colour/wood combi as your StingRay. I love the tone of pre-EBs with rosewood boardsand wish I could add this one to my collection. Good luck with the sale!
  11. Kees_SoS
    Bump.
  12. Kees_SoS
    Thanks. It will be with my parents for the next three weeks, should you change your mind. If it doesn't sell on Basschat or on eBay when the current listing expires, I may have them bring it back over here (Amsterdam). [quote name='IainRoberts' timestamp='1395531252' post='2403515'] Dont tempt me! I'm supposed to be slimming down my set up but this is a beauty! Good luck :-) [/quote]
  13. Kees_SoS
    Bump.
  14. Kees_SoS
    The bass is now with my parents [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]in Crewe, England.[/font][/color]
  15. Kees_SoS
    Love the black one! There's something about that shape in that colour that oozes coolness. My new OW is going to be a five-string fretted Original Series in translucent black. [quote name='waldflote8' timestamp='1394381287' post='2390841'] A sister for my rather beat up black original. I was amazed at the range of tones - to the point of checking that it was really passive, big difference from the all mahogany black one. [/quote]
  16. Kees_SoS
    The bass will be with my parents in Crewe, England as of 13 March.
  17. Kees_SoS
    Bump.

    I'll now also consider the following trades (with cash my way):[list] [*]Overwater Original Series or Artisan [*][b]Black [/b]Music Man StingRay 5 (fretted rosewood or fretless pau ferro) [/list]

    Hi, Jan. I'd love to see a few pics if you have some. I have to admit, I'm not really familiar with nels Busch, and I'm not sure that the guys at Overwater know of him. I know of a handful of Overwaters in the Netherlands, one of them an Artisan, and also a few in Belgium. Regards, Kees
  20. Kees_SoS
    For the sake of clarity, the only trade I'll consider is a pre-EB StingRay (preferably fretless). However, I'd still prefer a straight sale.

    I own a '79 factory fretless Sabre in black. Lovely instrument, but not quite what I need at the moment, so I've put it up for sale: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/220610-music-man-sabre/page__p__2280806__hl__sabre__fromsearch__1#entry2280806"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/220610-music-man-sabre/page__p__2280806__hl__sabre__fromsearch__1#entry2280806[/url]

    I own a 1979 rosewood factory fretless Sabre in black. Beautiful instrument, but not quite what I need at the moment, so it's up for sale, should anyone be interested: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/215184-1979-factory-fretless-music-man-sabre-price-drop/page__fromsearch__1"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/215184-1979-factory-fretless-music-man-sabre-price-drop/page__fromsearch__1[/url]

    Is yours active or passive, BTW? It also looks like the single-pickup version. Is that correct? [quote name='pablo100' timestamp='1384948742' post='2282601'] I do and if I've got any say in the matter I'm not parting with it! It's the best bass I've had for both live & studio work. I'm playing it on this EP [url="http://vetobroadway.bandcamp.com"]http://vetobroadway.bandcamp.com[/url] [/quote]

    Price drop to [b]GBP 1450/EUR 1750 (ex shipping and case)[/b]. (For some reason, the full editor won't let me adjust the price in the header.)
