silverfoxnik Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Very cool looking bass, Taran, though I'm not surprised given it used to belong to Peter.. This is an amazing amount of bass for the money, especially with the very 'Wal like' preamp/eq. GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cocco Posted April 22, 2016 Share Posted April 22, 2016 Wow. What a lovely looking bass. The lower horn reminds me of the BC Rich Mockingbird, something I've always had GAS for. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LukeGTE Posted April 29, 2016 Share Posted April 29, 2016 I would love to take it off your hands buddy, but AC has just started a custom build for me. These are great to play and yours is very pretty but the spectacular thing about ACGs is the tonal range. Before commissioning mine I tried a few and was quite dumbfounded by the way they sound. Someone's gonna snap this up soon and they'll be delighted with it. Sorry you've found yourself in a situation where you have to let it go, can't be an easy choice to make!

The-Ox Posted April 29, 2016 Author Share Posted April 29, 2016 not to worry Luke. You're right they're fantastic! The range is second to none, what ACG have you gone for then? Hope you enjoy it when it arrives! Yeah its a shame I have to sell! Very hard choice indeed! Hopefully there's a faint hope I can keep it but we'll see!
