Coldflows Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 (edited) (If this thread is a problem please remove it! I don't want to get anyone in trouble!) A mysterious parcel arrived at my door a few days ago... [url=http://postimg.org/image/yd5n8lpj3/][/url] Wow, it really is an incredible bass, the neck profile is very small and fast and it has a whole multitude of sounds from the pickups, I'm not 100% what the controls do but you can really tailor the sound, so far I think my favourite is the all out stingray thud. [url=http://postimg.org/image/oh422fnrr/][/url] It's light to wear and thin, easy to play for a few hours and looks so rock and roll. [url=http://postimg.org/image/ry645emtz/][/url] LOUD!

kodiakblair Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Damn fine looking bass you got there Ben. I thought for a moment they were the same pickups used in one of mine and it's LOUD ! Renegade is an apt name for this and the builder Cheers for posting Quote
PlungerModerno Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 OK - that is sweet. Love the colour - only thing I'd be concerned about is the pickup selector switch position. May not get hit accidently - I suppose it'd depend on the player. Quote
Coldflows Posted June 27, 2015 Author Posted June 27, 2015 I haven't had that problem as I play with my hand above the strings and don't use a pick but I guess you could move it quite easily. Quote
Bassbadger Posted June 27, 2015 Posted June 27, 2015 Looks like it is in exactly the same position as the bass it is based on. Quote
