spyder Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Kind of NBD bass. I was going to sell my 6 month old Elwood to fund another project but decided to breath a little new life into the old girl. I've added Rosewood covered Haussel single coil pickups and added a set of 40 -100 chromes. Now its perfect..... enjoy.

Naetharu Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 Nice! Those Haussel's are lovely if some of the online sound samples are anything to go by. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OliverBlackman Posted September 19, 2015 Share Posted September 19, 2015 I'm really liking the look of these basses! How much does a 4 string approximately cost? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some of the fancier ones such as the 'Europe' models with the unusual wood tops or the 'absolution' with all the body binding, can be a little bit more. Even then, they come in at under £1000 for a hand built bass with top notch hardware. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JTUK Posted September 20, 2015 Share Posted September 20, 2015 They look interesting... The 5st Jazz basses models new are around the same sort of price you'd expect for a s/h Am Del 5st. Would need to see see and play one up close, of course. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
