    Here's my white baby . . . . [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCedGkjV-W0"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MCedGkjV-W0[/url] It's a heavily restored '74 neck, with a Geddy body, refinished in Nitro, 74 bridge, electrics and tuners, Wizard 84 pups and a modern scratchplate.

    I think tonally - it's fine. IMO it sounds like Alder. I find ash has more low mids and is a bit more 'organic' sounding - ash is my preferred body wood. Visually Basswood is very plain and does tend to 'dink' easily. It's seldom used on transparent finishes as the grain is quite boring. My favourite Jazz had a basswood body, but I've just changed the body over to an ash one. You can see/listen to it as it was (basswood) here . . .

    [quote name='risingson' post='1211932' date='Apr 26 2011, 07:15 PM']Depending on the venue in question, I'm always put off by bands that have too big a setup for the size of the room. The tendency is to crank it up but all that ends up happening is that you get this wall of sound where nothing has it's place in a live mix situation, and the vocal gets totally drowned.[/quote] With you on that one! Loz - I've a Nemesis 4 x 10 and love it, but for most pub gigs now I just use an old Trace 200w head and an Aguillar DB112 - amazingly loud and deep for something so small! You sorted for a band now?

    Boomp

    Awesome!

    The bridge is standard. The thumbwheels are 'fine tuners' - totally pointless in my opinion as you can tune the thing easily using the machine heads, however the bridge is very massive and my guess is it contributes to the sound. i have one of these basses - not in as good nick - and it's a really great bass - picked it up for a snip in Crack Convertors. Worth every penny of what's being asked!
  24. King Tut
    Bump for pics of the actual bass please!
