Bass Culture Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 WoT - what's the radius of the fingerboard? I'm awaiting mine for delivery towards the end of January but I never thought to check the radius before I pulled the trigger. Unless it's silly tight it won't be a problem but I do prefer something over 12" usually. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocco Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 I'm working out the details on one too 10 week lead time at the moment isn't too bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sibob Posted December 1, 2015 Share Posted December 1, 2015 Mine is currently at 12 weeks, however I did have a chambered body and 33" scale custom options which may have slowed it slightly. Si Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wateroftyne Posted December 5, 2015 Author Share Posted December 5, 2015 Hey hey hey It's the kind of weather that makes you want to stay in the house and make a video Caveats: The strings are fresh-out-of-the-packet flats, so they're zingy as hell (yeuch!), the whole thing was done in a hurry, and I still don't really know what I'm doing when it comes to recording and mixing my own bass. Apart form that.. errr.. it's OK. I'll do a video with rounds when I get a chance. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xFM3h7JaPvk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wateroftyne Posted December 8, 2015 Author Share Posted December 8, 2015 I used it last night at a rehearsal before our run of gigs over the next couple of weeks, and it sounded beautiful. It's definitely a bit more aggressive than my 3TSB, so I've got a nice contrast there. The narrow neck and maple board is something I wasn't really used to, but I don't really think about them now - it just feels great. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lozz196 Posted December 8, 2015 Share Posted December 8, 2015 Can hear the aggression in that, a beautiful tone, reckon mix-wise that will sit very nicely. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wateroftyne Posted December 15, 2015 Author Share Posted December 15, 2015 Gigged it a couple of times so far, with lots more coming up over the next few weeks. Its a beautiful thing - definitely more aggressive than my 'burst, and the bridge pickup is a monster in 'bucker mode. It's a nice tonal alternative - the realist is, I'm happy to play either. Different flavours of lovliness, and all that. The weight is great, the notes are all as clear and even as my 'burst. Mind, it's taking my a while to get used to maple - I do like my rosewood. :-) I haven't got much in the was of video to show off yet, just this from a mellow gig 'tother night. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NvTE_bmN8y4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
