That Eco is a dead ringer for a Westone...

Nice.. could maybe do with some observation notes... Got some Dunlop Stainless Steel Strings, I notice the outer windings are a fair bit thinner than say the Rotosound Nickels on a 105 E. The thinner windings of the dunlops feel a lot smoother to play... How do the windings of the Ernie Balls compare? Would you know if this is a Dunlop v Rotosound thing? or a Stainless v Nickel thing? Thanks...

NOS... New (but) Old Stock...

wenge for me... no guard... more wood...

Fun... recognise the IKEA puppets...

Nice, but... Why a tort guard... single ply plain black needed... failing that bwb or wbw...

Pickguard in the same material as the markers?

Anyone on BC? https://www.guitarworld.com/amp/features/meet-the-owner-of-the-worlds-biggest-12-string-bass-collection LOTS of strings...

this thread got me picking out a bit from my whitesnake box set... some nice burpin' on the Child of Babylon... But Walkin in the shadow of the blues is a fav...

Thats 'Jazz Club' Nice...

Then manufacturers come up with core to wrap low tension, without giving you a number and statments such as tonaly balanced... If only all manuf quoted the tension per gauge n variety of string... Like calouries and fat on a biscuit... thats it time for a coffee 'n a orange club... (and i dont mean an early p bass neck in roasted mapel)

Nice take with the white pickup cover... As for the neck join? don't they check over when finished? - poor show... fret buzz may be more truss rod n transit issue, but still... still not a tort fan but thats percy taste... Saw Black Sabbath Paranoid Classic Albums the other night, Geezer had a pair of Lakelands, Laklandie, Laklandies... well, 2 Nice basses... Enjoy!

nice... simple and elegant... White pickup covers need to go... they scream!

Big Hawkwind fan... up to Black Sword '85ish - Then i went a bit... mmm American Hawkwind? - Monster Magnet...

headstock - No... What were they thinking / drinking... Surely needs to be a 2 a side, (or a 3 n 1 if ya want to get arty...) plus a bit of scroll of curl, i'd go for a simple mirror the bottom bought?

For those interested and missed it... https://www.basschat.co.uk/topic/435220-isolated-bass-geddy-lee-tom-sawyer/ Mind ya ears... it comes in late n loud! And for those with Prime, 'Classic Albums... 2112 (& Moving Pictures...) some interesting insight and blah blah...

Get ya Geddy on again... yyz https://faroutmagazine.co.uk/geddy-lee-isolated-bass-rush-yyz/amp/

Hello... Further up the road in years, further back in playing... and not sure which way in location... It's good on here...

lots of fastner shops in UK on ebay... use em often for motorbike bits... swap em all for stainless A2... Intonation and bridge saddle etc... cheap enough... I ordered some saddle screws, DOG end rather than CONE end... to sit better in the bridge channel, but big fingers and small phone meant i must of picked the wrong size... will order again for the sake of a couple of quid... assemble with a smear of vasaline or sewing machine / clipper oil...

not quite metal, but maybe a valid excuse to view some kate bush vids on you tube... 😉

Wowza! even more reason to smile...

Happy NBD! Same SR700 on reverb for £500..

Nice natural finish... I really like the SR body shape and necks... unfortunatly i could only streatch to the GSR200...
