Look as good as new..[/quote] You do realise I am going to have to do that now LOL, was going to stick a new set of OW strings on anyway so I give them a good buffing at the same time -

Overwater Progress II 6 String £850 ono Price Drop
cd_david replied to cd_david's topic in Basses For Sale
Hi Leo It has a very clear sound particularly on the bottom end, I know a lot of 6s sound like a nylon up the very top but seem to lack detail and clarity at the B, this is very tight and pronounced at the low B and all the way up keeps the even tone. The top doesn't sound like a nylon string more like a steel or bronze wound acoustic, very ringy and definitely metallic. Whether this is the Overwater circuit Im not sure as I only ever run it mid pan and tones fully on, I presume its a mass and choice of woods thing. Hope this helps? I think I may have a very old recording of it somewhere, I will try to find it and upload it. Cheers Dave -
Gibson SG 1976 £1100 ono

I swapped this with Bassman Sam last month, its a beautiful bass that had at some point been stripped and refinished natural, the finish had worn through on the front and back. I wanted to refinish it black (57 period correct AND RW like) so I took it to trusty Dave Wilson who did the original RW P I built. Stripped with a sleepy Mr Blues The back was particularly bad with the buckle rash exaggerating the grain just on the body contour and when Dave worked on it he has had to do a lot of building to retain the contour line but all looks fantastic. This is how it looks with the body filled and under coated. Getting exciting now

No trades at all on thisa one, I need a new bike. Vintage 1976 Gibson SG Standard + bigsby all original parts apart from the bridge which had been replaced when i bought it about 4 years ago. Killer gibson tone Invisible frets. Low action plays like melted butter.Great condition and Plenty of life left for a 35 year old rock animal. Cheers Dave

Orgon Systems Energiser Synth Modules. These modules are standard Orgon Energiser modules, they were made for me by Geoff (when we used to work together) to make a filter module like a QTron but to be honest this is a Tremolo, Auto wah, filter pedal or all 3. stunningly flexible and stunning quality They include an: Envelope Follower Multimode Filter LFO Power Supply Module. They come in a box made by Orgon Systems which is a bit tatty, However the modules are immaculate and in full working order. They sounds produced by the filter are unbelievable, I've never heard a filter sweep so low and high, phenomenal frequency response. I have also used these with old analogue synths and it really improves the thinnest sounding mono or polysynth. (you can polish a turd ) The modules were about £45 each but are unbelievably rare and sought after, Prefer a swap, something synthy first? Cheers Dave

[quote name='gareth' post='1231201' date='May 14 2011, 06:21 PM']Is that a reissue 70's bass or a very well kept 70's bass with upgraded bridge? Very nice whichever[/quote] Hi Gareth, The bridge is a Gotoh, dont know how i missed that in the original post. Missing it already, but really glad that Sam is so happy with it. Cheers David
