Roland Rock Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 (edited) I've been obsessing over this [url="http://gilyaronguitars.com/page10.php?view=thumbnailList&category=14"]Gil Yaron P Bass[/url] I really like his ethos and he seems to be passionate about getting things period-correct. His [url="http://www.tdpri.com/forum/bass-place/139356-57-precision-bass-build.html"]build threads[/url] are fantastic. I'd love one like that sonic blue early 60s one, but preferably with a maple board - anyone know if this a 'period correct' configuration? What little feedback I can find seems positive too. Anyone know anything about these? btw - This is in the 'fantasy' category at the moment - I don't know how much these are, but I do know I can't afford one yet Edited April 22, 2011 by Roland Rock Quote
LukeFRC Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 yeah they do look lovely. I've looked at some of his work before on the net. very nice looking it is too. Quote
BassBod Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 They do look very good, don't they? I read somewhere they also cost a fair bit..which was good news. A good choice for a fantasy bass (mine would be a stack knob Jazz..2 tone sunburst. Yum. I can almost smell the sawdust and thinners). Quote
Happy Jack Posted April 22, 2011 Posted April 22, 2011 It was the bit about making his own oil & paper capacitors that really got me ... that's an attention to detail that verges on the obsessive (but in a good way ). Out of sheer idle curiosity I did email him last summer to ask how much he would charge for a Precision, but he never replied. Quote
