I'm down at the factory again next Thursday so I'll bring back all the rumours and goss then! Hopefully will get to see the mk2 KingBass as well.[/quote]You bloody live there, would you also ask if there are any plans to build the Streamliner in left hand, or if they will build the replacement necks in lefty, please? Thanks Steve. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I heard rumours a while back that Rob was refusing to build Electros either because the model was being revamped, or perhaps because it needed a revamp. Any news on that would be much appreciated. (I'm hoping to hear about a bass with larger acoustic chambers). If that's too many requests and mine drops off the end of the list, no problems.

lee4 Posted August 16, 2008 Share Posted August 16, 2008 I've owned a Groove for years.Other basses have come and gone but the Groove remains the one constant piece of equipment.

grapevinebass Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 OK to add to the Status-Fest... My Series 2 in Cherry laquer finish over ash The graphite has a red tint to compliment the body. Light and well balanced, and just (almost) never goes out of tune Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
