Rumble Posted March 20, 2017 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 .

lee650 Posted March 20, 2017 Posted March 20, 2017 This is bass I was trying to sell my Stingray 5HH to buy!! Unfortunately it didn't sell 😔 gorgeous bass.
Rumble Posted March 21, 2017 Author 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.

Owen Posted April 9, 2017 Posted April 9, 2017 I started using an Overwater yesterday. It is quite the sound and quiet as a mouse. I am very impressed.

markstuk Posted April 16, 2017 Posted April 16, 2017 If my Jazz 5 goes soon ( a couple of interested bites recently) I'll be coming over to give it a play if that's ok? You're only about half an hour away..
Rumble Posted April 16, 2017 Author Posted April 16, 2017 Still holding out for a straight sale, thanks. @Mark - you will be most welcome.
