bartelby Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 [quote name='BassApprentice' timestamp='1500538161' post='3338488'] but I came across this word: Psilos which means bare/smooth/uncovered in ancient Greek. [/quote] I was going to make a suggestion, but it's nowhere near as good as that. So I won't bother. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andyjr1515 Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 I've done a few arty-farty shots if that gives anyone inspiration: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 It does look good..... Looking forward to getting my hands on it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 Without the neck, it looks a bit like an eagle or vulture's head. Add to that the swift inlays on the head, I'm going to offer 'The Squawk' as my suggestion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FuNkShUi Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 [quote name='BassApprentice' timestamp='1500538161' post='3338488'] but I came across this word: [b]Psilos[/b] which means bare/smooth/uncovered in ancient Greek. Thought it would be quite fitting for the nature of the design and finish. [/quote] You've got your winner surely? I'm not even going to try after that!

Andyjr1515 Posted July 20, 2017 Author Share Posted July 20, 2017 Can't find a decent recording of the piezo vs magnetic, but[url="https://youtu.be/a8NKbFLyUaI"] this illustrates how it sits on the strap[/url].

Paul S Posted July 20, 2017 Share Posted July 20, 2017 That is one heck of a bass, Andy. I can't begin to understand the skill levels involved - not to mention the lateral thinking - that made it possible but I unquestionably admire them. However I also think it is one of the ugliest things I have ever seen! I like Fender shaped basses.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
