bassist_lewis Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 (edited) How does the Low B play on the shorter scale? some recordings would go down a treat very pretty bass btw Edited February 16, 2012 by bassist_lewis Quote

I don't have any recordings of the new bass, flat out busy with other things, and probably will be for the foreseeable Having said that, once I clear my feet a bit, I plan to do some recordings, comparisons etc. For now though, here's 2 tunes where I used my ACG 5er (33" scale, obviously), where I venture below low a bit >> http://soundcloud.com/eudeboy/02-body-soul http://soundcloud.com/eudeboy/09-tsunami-of-soul ...and here's a recording that I did on my first 33"er, a Shuker 6 string >> http://soundcloud.com/eudeboy/junction-strut The low B on the new one seems to be the best yet, probably down to the incredibly stiff neck If you've got any other questions, feel free to give me a shout!

Billy Apple Posted February 16, 2012 Posted February 16, 2012 You know, with the weather we had the other day, you missed a photo opportunity... Brand new ACG in the snow! ..... Dare ya! Quote
eude Posted February 17, 2012 Author Posted February 17, 2012 (edited) Yeah I know, would've been perfect! I'll do it if any more comes. If it was up to me, it would snow most of the time, I love it, hate the heat! Eude Edited February 17, 2012 by eude Quote
GarethFlatlands Posted February 17, 2012 Posted February 17, 2012 That's a great looking bass. This thread has given me massive GAS for a single cut ACG fretless. Quote

I'm a very lucky chap! The pickups are ACG Single Coils. I believe they're both ceramic too, for a bit more bite Eude Quote
sprocket123 Posted February 26, 2012 Posted February 26, 2012 ok thanx for the comeback buddy , I thought they where made with Alnico 3 or 5 , but someone can have whatever he want s I guess with ACG Quote

[/quote] Mines a ceramic at the bridge and alnico at the neck. Supposedly Ceramic is more naturallly 'bitey' and alnico is 'warmer' Either way they both sound HUUUUGE Quote
sprocket123 Posted February 28, 2012 Posted February 28, 2012 Thanx charic for the comeback , it helps a bit buddy also . Quote
