danweb22 Posted May 7, 2013 Posted May 7, 2013 Just thought I would post some pics of my new ACG Recurve 5 Graft, I think it is stunning! Still can not believe Alan can offer these hand made basses at such a great price! This one has a bubinga top, and lovely it is too Quote
eude Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Wow that is absolutely gorgeous mate, congrats! These Graft Basses are insanely good value for money Eude Quote

geoffbassist Posted May 8, 2013 Posted May 8, 2013 Killer bass. I love Alan's work, they play so well! Quote

I've got it on my ACG Finn 4 string and its absobloody-brilliant! It also has a very satisfying feel as you switch through the settings. Eude Quote

ead Posted June 10, 2013 Posted June 10, 2013 Definitely a top notch bass there, beautiful top. I've having the passive set up in my next ACG too. Quote
Chris2112 Posted June 19, 2013 Posted June 19, 2013 That headstock design is very elegant and sexy. Quote
