MarkWJenkins Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 She's finally here, and what a beauty she is!! Fanndec 6 String (with a custom shop logo on the rear of the neck) Bought from Matthew (SMV) of this parish, and my first purchase from here. Fair play, it was packed so well, it took me approx 20 minutes to get into it, layers of cardboard, bubble wrap, gig bag, and then wrapped the bass up in bubble wrap too. Pretty sure it could've withstood a tactical nuclear strike!! First impressions.... What a beautiful bass to look at! 7piece walnut/maple neck through, lovely grain patterns on the natural wood. No rough fret ends, have just given it a quick set up and a noodle through my practice rig... It sounds HUGE!!!! haven't had time to play around with all the eq settings yet, but I'm getting a perfectly usable rock tone with all set flat! I know the score here - pics or it didn't happen!! I'm just waiting for my camera to charge, and then I shall upload some So happy with this purchase, and have been bouncing off the walls for a few days due to a cock up with Parcel force not collecting when they should have, but now she's here, it was definitely worth the wait!!!

MarkWJenkins Posted April 14, 2014 Author Share Posted April 14, 2014 Yep, just waiting for my camera to finish charging and then I'll attempt at uploading some. Is the pic uploader on here working, or should I photo bucket and link? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woodinblack Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 I always use photobucket, no idea how it works on here! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodinblack Posted April 18, 2014 Share Posted April 18, 2014 Very nice although I still don't understand how people can play those things - I have enough difficulty getting my hand over a 5! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
