chriswareham Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 Blimey, eye of the beholder and all that but the body it looks like a bit of chipboard with a damp patch in the middle. Quote
great harry Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 [quote name='chriswareham' timestamp='1403477541' post='2483156'] Blimey, eye of the beholder and all that but the body it looks like a bit of chipboard with a damp patch in the middle. [/quote] I am with you on that one, even though the close ups show its is some fancy burred wood I still can't get damp chipboard out of my mind. Maybe they could have picked a better bit. Quote
throwoff Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Oh Jon, why oh why do you have to make such wonderful things. My honest dream is to one day finally have the money to commission the build I spoke to Jon about a few years ago. The man is just a complete genius. Quote
Angel Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 Ha ha at the damp chipboard comment! Once you have read that it really does look that way! I'm sure it's amazing in real life. Quote
Annoying Twit Posted June 23, 2014 Author Posted June 23, 2014 I still see it as the burl, though I can see how people would think chipboard. IMHO the similar looking fretless on the Shuker site looks even better. Quote
BigRedX Posted June 23, 2014 Posted June 23, 2014 I was interested in the Shuker Artist Bass when I was first looking for a great fretless. Unfortunately playing a couple killed any enthusiasm I had for the appearance. Just couldn't get on with them at all from a playability PoV. Quote
