thisnameistaken Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 I wonder what sort of band's bass player would play one of those. Or if it's intended solely as a studio or bedroom bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jaydentaku Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 Oh dear lord, look at those pickups! It is quite mixed in it's styling. I bet Sir Milard wouldn't have said no to that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Wazoo Posted May 23, 2012 Share Posted May 23, 2012 You don't want on of them, the frets are all wonky! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lfalex v1.1 Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Nice enough, but a 4.6K Euros, I'd want more than a gig bag chucked in. And "[i]Premium[/i]" fretwork? I'd expect decent fretwork on a bass that costs that much. I don't like implication that proper fretwork on a bass - any bass- is such a chore Does that mean that their "normal" fretwork is a bit duff?

BigRedX Posted May 24, 2012 Share Posted May 24, 2012 Is it just me or does anyone else think that the combination of fan-frets and headless being squared off behind the nut looks wrong? If the nut-end string retainer was custom-made surely it would have been possible to make one which matches the angle of the nut? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I personally don't think that it would look sympathetic to this particularly rotund design (which I dislike a lot - especially that jigsaw-piece-lug upper horn)... it would make perfect sense on a different, sleeker maybe angular design though.
