Maurizio posted this on instagram, mine is the one on the right. Ash body, going to be stained black. Birdseye fretboard (I considered fretless and discussed it with him, but fretted is more usable - maybe I wasn't brave enough), 4 string, Bartolini pickup and we're discussing Kemp strings that play in the usual 34" octave - no need for a octaver.

I have a MUB Miezo on order, due in a couple of weeks. I will let you know my thoughts.

Great bass! No luck so far. Status, D'Addario and Labella don't do that length.
-
Ive been looking for one of these, congrats @Basilpea I couldn't find one, so I opted for the one that marked as sold on Rob's site - walnut with a f hole. I can't wait. I really think these are something special.
-
Nope, they will have to be a bit shorter than that, but I will email and see if they can get custom lengths. Thanks.
-
Thanks. Tried them but no, I have asked for some flatwounds when they start making them.

I'm looking for tapewounds for my short, short scale fretless bass (26.5 ACG bass). Labella don't make strings that short, does anyone have any suggestions how I can string 30" strings or where I could get shorter ones?

Looks amazing. I recently bought a Mike Lull P430 and I can't say enough good things about them, they are incredible! GLWTS. -
Cheers Fraser. -
I am, but not very often. Thinning the herd, so sales only, thanks. -

Tricky - not really, comparable with a Rob Allen Mouse from a handling perspective. The slim neck and compact size just makes it easy to manage.
-
Cheers Mike. Happy New Year to you too!

Sounds just like the link posted by Eude. And it's in much better hands than mine, with this fella.

3.5kg on my scale. Super playable, a nice warm tone with the Labella nylons.
-
Thanks. I just have to do it from time to time.
-
Actually they are Newtone 115 (e string) strings made specifically for this scale bass - UK made, readily available and don’t cost the earth. I will include a spare set in the deal. I'm keeping the fretless version of this bass.

Your best (and worst!) bass gear purchases of 2019?
Grantd replied to Al Krow's topic in General Discussion
I picked up a new Mike Lull P430 this year. It's a lightweight, 30 inch, P bass (translucent black, swamp ash body with maple neck and fingerboard), loaded with flats, and I am absolutely converted, its one of the best (if not the best) in my collection now. And it's the lightest too. -

My old bass. It's an amazing bass! Have a bump. -
They are similar to P pups in my view, but I think they have more mids and perhaps not as controlled as P bass pickups, but great character.
