Thunder Fingers Posted February 7, 2008 Posted February 7, 2008 (edited) It is a Samick Artist 6 string, as far as i can figure, made between 1996 and 1999. This is a very solid bass, Keeps tuning incredible well, Easy to play, Narrow string spacing, Good sound, Active (2 band pre amp.. pots might need some cleaning), Neckthrough.. This is not a "cheapo" Samick bass, as the reviews can testify for. I have used this bass live, and as a main bass with a band I played abit with, and I didn't need to tune it for 3 practices! Once in its lifetime it have been repainted black, I doubt its a proffesional job, but it is certainly not badly done.

Mr Cougar Posted February 8, 2008 Posted February 8, 2008 Bloody hell!! I've had one of these since 1998 I bought it for £550 in a local music shop and used it a load in the studio for some high c work, I have the walnut body and wenge thru kneck type described in your link. Really tidy bass. Thanks!

Thunder Fingers Posted March 9, 2008 Author Posted March 9, 2008 yeah... The lady insists on having it there, and its a nice place to lay basses, so I dont have to put 'em right on the floor
charic Posted March 19, 2008 Posted March 19, 2008 Student loan soon, i may try and shift some stuff and have this off of you, how does the neck compare to that of a trb1006 in ur opinion? i want this bass
Thunder Fingers Posted March 20, 2008 Author Posted March 20, 2008 I havent played a TRB1006, but it is a nice enough neck, solid and fast (For my hands atleast). It is realy in the need of new strings though, I use Optima, and they don't make 6er strings, so i havent gotten around to change 'em. You have any pedals that i might be intrested in? I'm also open for trades.
charic Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Ive got a marshall distortion, a boss distortion and a big muff (pedal!) all willing to be put into the pot if your interested. Also got a warwick rockbass 1 pickup streamer
charic Posted March 20, 2008 Posted March 20, 2008 Mine, mine, mine, mine, mine oh and guess whos learning 6 string bass now me dream theater here i come
