Reverend Posted February 24, 2014 Share Posted February 24, 2014 (edited) Hello, My good ol' Tanglewood Curbow bass up for sale. It's red, it's crazy and it's the fastest playing bass guitar on the planet, bar none! Super slim neck, very modern sounding, but the on board active EQ is hugely powerful so you can get a variety of tones. This has mega low end, especially if you push the 'slap switch'. Is brilliant for RnB and hip hop stuff in this setting. I've made it cheap as it has a little split in the headstock by one of the tuning pegs. Doesn't affect the playability or tuning in any way and it's been the same for 5 years, so it isn't getting any worse. Here's some pics, including one of the little split in the headstock. http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e202/AlRev/2014-02-24173925_zpsf0021097.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e202/AlRev/2014-02-24174206_zpsc6ee77db.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e202/AlRev/2014-02-24174105_zps2a32328a.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e202/AlRev/2014-02-24174025_zps32c09fc0.jpg http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e202/AlRev/2014-02-24174002_zpsef4f8c87.jpg Ta!

Burg Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 I had one of these for years, was my second ever bass. Really underrated instrument, super fast neck. Free BUMP for the nostalgia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HowieBass Posted February 25, 2014 Share Posted February 25, 2014 If it's an early model Tanglewood Curbow (like mine) it'll have a Mighty Mite pickup and the EQ should still be fully active with the slap switch engaged - later iterations of the Curbow are less flexible with a preset EQ contour with the slap switch on. And of course this is exactly the same beast as a Cort Curbow, just rebadged for Tanglewood. GLWTS! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reverend Posted February 26, 2014 Author Share Posted February 26, 2014 Yep, it's a pretty early one with the Mightymite pickup. The slap switch engages a further bit of active EQ (bass boost and mid cut) which are found on the back of the bass on two little trimmer pots. Really nice touch. and BUMP!

alyctes Posted March 1, 2014 Share Posted March 1, 2014 I'm tempted, having seen the pics. It looks very pretty. I need to win a lottery or two... or sell all that stuff I'm not using. Any trades? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
