Wood neck

Agreed that looks like it!

I have a Steinberger fretless bass and I can’t find out the model. It’s been refinished and fitted with EMG electronics. I saw a XQSTD5 for sale and it looks very similar, except neck bolt arrangement is different. Any help is appreciated!

I now ask for a 20gbp donation for emailed files.

What’s the rms output of the K12.2? they quote 2000w peak. So 500w rms?

Anyone else own a 48? I acquired a heavy relic one. Looks great and sounds huge, but not getting on with the comfort under my right forearm. Shame because it’s plekd, and has a super low action!

Hoping they bring out a jazz!

Haha ! Driving a LHD manual felt weird for a while! I’m from your side of the pond, but have no idea what an Ariya is 😂

I had the exact same amp cab setup. Epic tone! Cabs are heavy and an awkward one man lift. Still have the amp though!

Haha I’ve had my share of bass nerds at gigs! The wood plugs front and back are just to repair wood defects. It’s meant to be experimental so I didn’t want to risk messing up fancy wood. With the Riviera you can only tune through the body. There’s an anchor inside that rides up or down with the tuning knob on the front. I made a template for the mechanism.

I just picked up headless hardware by Riviera. Great quality, and doesn’t mean you have to compromise your body shape at the back. Good for retrofitting too. Here’s my test bass.

I also had a go at a mk3 clone, but I was more interested in the shape than mimicking the true Wal sound. But saying that, I did use Walbuckers and Lusithand preamp just out of curiosity. It’s a truly powerful bass for sure with lots of tonal variation on tap

This amp really is killer! I’m really pleased with mine.

I’m getting it Monday, so I’ll give you my thoughts! How much are they new?

Does anyone own one of these? The cons could be upper fret access and neck dive. Apart from that, is it a great bass? I may be acquiring a heavy relic one blind.
