deepbass5 Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 17mm string space !!! I would have walked to your place for 19mm. here's a bump for a very nice bass.
playbass Posted March 6, 2011 Posted March 6, 2011 Always wanted to try a 33" bass. Do you have any sound clips of finger style playing? Just to get an idea of the sound. I guess you're going to say the pre amp and pickup switching makes it very versatile, but clips would be awesome.
Beneath It All Posted March 7, 2011 Author Posted March 7, 2011 Sorry,too busy right now..Yes , the tonal possibilities seem endless ..Low rich dub to Alembic..Jazz bass to Kubicki..It's all there but does require some tweaking/patience as the controls appear to be interactive! 33" Scale works amazingly well but does need a slightly lighter touch..Come to think of it, I'm not 100% sure I want to part with it

Owen Posted March 7, 2011 Posted March 7, 2011 I would love to try this, but it is not to be. However I would like to bump it because it is lush, the proportions are just right.
Beneath It All Posted March 9, 2011 Author Posted March 9, 2011 (edited) Withdrawn for now....Still amazed by the tonal possibilities every time I plug-in..Truly seems to be a bass that will cope with EVERYTHING... Dunno who ACG are, but here's one almighty plug for the best active cct I've ever heard............................also a plug for Shuker for a well put together bass with a superb neck Edited March 9, 2011 by Beneath It All

Cairobill Posted March 10, 2011 Posted March 10, 2011 Lucky you withdrew it, that Shuker had everything I wanted in a five string at an excellent price. Soundwise, though, I am not a fan of the stingray tone. How would you characterise the tones on offer? Could you run the MEC pup as a single coil or two singles? Cheers Nick
Beneath It All Posted March 10, 2011 Author Posted March 10, 2011 Hi Stuart,hope you're well..Probably right about the ships although I do prefer being anywhere but the UK ..Of course,the sun is always an attraction and I do get to play with some ace players..
