Hollow Body Porn

[kevbass]

My (soon to be with me) Hutchins Prince II bass complete with tweed hard case. Looking foward to receiving this one because I've never had a hollow body bass before. It's an ex demo model but with no marks or dinks, I may convert it to a fretless. It has a mahogany body, mahogany neck, grover tuners and arctec pickups. I had a look online and most stockists sell it with the case at 449 quid, one place had it at 390, I got it with case for 193 quid. I'll do a review when I get it.

I look forward to the review Kev. I was tempted by the green Hutchins hollowbody myself but they are a bit of an unknown brand for me - I've read about them but not played one

I was eyeing that one up myself but it sold the day after I had been looking at it.

[size=4]Here is my fretless semi acoustic/ hollow bodied Fender P bass. [/size]

Not too much info about it I'm afraid - it has "Fender USA" on the neck plate but "Made in Japan" on the headstock (IIRC). Allegedly one of 200 which escaped the factory following a law suit against Fender - anybody with any additional info can PM me. Alternatively put it up here for all to see..Weighs pretty much nothing!!

Currently with a friend who's trying out some new styles - he's only been playing about 25 years!! - so I can't actually provide serial Nos, etc..

I hope you enjoyed seeing a slightly different Fender..

Posted this before... but here's some 'cheap & nasty' (hollow body) porn; my 60's Commodore. I think related to the Epiphone EA-260. Had this out & been playing it a fair bit lately.

My Veillette Archtop. Quite simply my favourite fretless bass ever.

any sign of your bass yet?

I too am considering one and would appreciate some feedback.

Also, is it a Prince or a Prince II? i can only find details online about the Prince II online.

Cheers
