Rumble Posted March 20, 2017 Share Posted March 20, 2017 (edited) I picked up this lovely [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Overwater Progres Deluxe III 5 string from k50 along with the other Koa topped Progress Elite sold recently by k50. The idea being that I would try both and keep the one I preferred. The tone of both is outstanding and quite similar (although this one is probably slightly cleaner and more modern sounding - [i]amazing [/i]slap tone), but as I'm a sucker for a lovely piece of wood, the Koa is staying.[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Specs:[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Mahogony core[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Wenge facing[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Rosewood finger board[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]5 piece maple and purpleheart neck[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Overwater / East electronics (work perfectly)[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]High gloss finish[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]18mm string spacing at the bridge[/font][/color] 36" scale Weight ~10Ibs [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]This bass was made in 2001 and has been regularly maintained by Overwater .

Grangur Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 As I understand it, they're 35" with a 0 fret? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
herbass Posted March 21, 2017 Share Posted March 21, 2017 There's no zero fret on this though! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rumble Posted March 21, 2017 Author Share Posted March 21, 2017 No typo. I believe all Overwater Progress basses are 36" scale (unless otherwise stated). Feels like a 35" though because of the way it balances. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
