visog Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 (edited) Loving the new wave of semi-acoustic sixes... with their whumpy arch-top attack... Here's John Patitucci with a Yamaha one: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrW8QdWZbxY#t=39"]https://www.youtube....rW8QdWZbxY#t=39[/url] And here's Thundercat (disappointingly actually called Steven) tearing it up on an Ibanez one, especially around 2:10: [url="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TrW8QdWZbxY#t=39"]https://www.youtube....rW8QdWZbxY#t=39[/url] Both look similar kinds of models competing for the same market space... love to know how much? Details anyone? Or what about other makers with similar models? Edited March 21, 2015 by visog Quote
visog Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 Apparently it's a custom-made Artcore and like John Patitucci's Yamaha is a 'one off' and not likely to be a production. http://www.talkbass.com/threads/thundercats-new-ibanez-6-string.984240/page-2 Quote
blablas Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Here is one I built a few years back. [url="http://home.online.nl/blablas/bass/mk3/mk3-6details.html"]More details and pictures[/url]. Quote
visog Posted March 21, 2015 Author Posted March 21, 2015 That is gorgeous.... like the Les Paul vibe about it. How di't sound? Quote
blablas Posted March 21, 2015 Posted March 21, 2015 Like most other active electric bases, you don't really hear it's a hollow body, at the most it has a little bit more warmth in the tone. Quote
