Scoop Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 (edited) I got a few basses out today for a fettle and a restring and a fret polish and, as the weather was nice (for about three minutes) I decided to get a few pics of them. And, yes, I know the back wall needs pointing... Here's the Roscoe SKB3005. Exhibition maple on swamp ash and the fingerboard is African tulipwood (with a sapwood streak). The depth of the figuring in this maple is astonishing. [attachment=7105:IMG_0101.JPG] [attachment=7106:IMG_0102.JPG] [attachment=7107:IMG_0103.JPG] Here's my Rickenbacker 4003 Blue Boy. Blue Boy was a limited edition colour during, erm, 2002, I think. See? I'm an expert on my gear... [attachment=7096:IMG_0104_edited.JPG] [attachment=7097:IMG_0105_edited.JPG] Right, just one pic each of the next three coz I'm losing the will to live. This is my Lakland Skyline Bob Glaub which went through the "shop" at Chicago before it went to a US-based endorsee as a backup to his US Glaub. He pretty much never used it so when it arrived with me it was 10/10 immaculate. [attachment=7101:IMG_0108_edited.JPG] This is a Ken Smith Design Jazz with an EBS pre-amp modded for me by Bernie Goodfellow [attachment=7102:IMG_0110_edited.JPG] And this is my 96 warwick Fortress One. It's fugly as sin but it sounds and plays great. [attachment=7103:IMG_0114_edited.JPG] Edited March 30, 2008 by Scoop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't wait to get my hands on that ACG! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
