Neat. [/quote] What doesn't? [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1433716567' post='2793409'] I hate LEDs... I suppose I could pull the batteries. [/quote] I expect they're switchable. I'd like them better if they changed colour... J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coldflows Posted June 9, 2015 Share Posted June 9, 2015 Wood in the centre too so should at least sustain normally. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer of the Bass Posted June 10, 2015 Share Posted June 10, 2015 [quote name='Bassassin' timestamp='1433194509' post='2788887'] The makers of this bass posted it on a local FB muso group I use, mostly just to get reactions & feedback. This was my "assessment": [i]Aesthetically I love it - I'm a sucker for a see-through bass, but from a player's perspective I have a few misgivings about the practicality of the design & the pickup & switching choices. A bass is usually a pretty heavy instrument, and lots of hard edges & protruding fasteners might make this pretty uncomfortable to play over a long gig - the 4 sharp ridges where a forearm chamfer would be on a solid body look particularly eye-watering! Not at all convinced by the Strat-type pickup layout & switching - on the whole a pickup selector is pretty much useless on a bass, the facility to blend pickups (either individual volumes or a pan pot) is far more flexible. I'd be inclined to go for a 2 pickup arrangement with pan pot. And some LEDs. Lots of LEDs.[/i] Well, it's just a giant Strat really, innit? Jon. [/quote] I agree about the forearm chamfer. It might be possible for them to make the top layer full size and bend it in drop-top fashion to cover the edges of the lower layers.
