basscell Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 (edited) Hi everyone, here's a brand new bass built for me by W&T, a Zoid from the new Landmark Series. It's special for its pickup placement, the bridge pickup is double coil but a very special one. Bridge coil is very interesting, Alembic-y? Great with the neck pickup, but also on its own. Coil closer to neck is a very rich J sound. Had it for a couple of weeks and I'm getting some great sounds from it. Here are some pictures. And several video clips with decent sound showing various pickup combinations. I'm really pleased with it, enjoy!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yHhggxHZVZs&list=PLQZFv1o-jvAwOVffcEg9dxN0iTYPu1Lur&index=1 Edited November 26, 2014 by basscell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
