Kevin Glasgow Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Custom 8 String Overwater Progress Bass for sale (see pictures at bottom of post). Tuned Low B to Bb it features: * 5 Piece Maple and Walnut neck * Lime Body * Burl Black Poplar full top * Matching Headstock Veneer * Individual Saddles * Thru-Body Stringing The instrument boasts an OW 3 Band EQ and custom control layout. Comes with hardcase, strap and truss rod tool. This bass is featured on the Overwater website at; [url="http://www.overwaterbasses.com/index.php?mact=News,cntnt01,detail,0&cntnt01articleid=7&cntnt01origid=59&cntnt01returnid=60"]http://www.overwaterbasses.com/index.php?m...nt01returnid=60[/url] This is an incredible and totally unique instrument (it is the only one of it's kind!), and is in excellent condition. I'm sorry to have to let this bass go, but my career has changed direction and I am now focusing more on guitar - so I'd rather it belonged to someone who can give it the attention that it deserves. To hear some of the stuff I was doing with this bass go to; [url="http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=JTWtsFxkQhw"]http://uk.youtube.com/watch?v=JTWtsFxkQhw[/url] This kind of custom made instrument would normally retail at around £3000 new. I'm leaving this sale open to offers (offers over £1,500 please) so if you're interested then please get in touch. Pick up for free in London - or if you'd like to arrange for delivery then just get in touch and we can sort something out. Thanks for reading. Cheers, Kev. 07990772491 [email protected]
Kiwi Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Im just amazed that you're able to find strings for it! What a monster! Good luck in selling it.
thisnameistaken Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Is that an LED mounted just above the bridge there? What is that?
Golchen Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Fantastic looking beast! And some pretty amazing widdling on the video as well - which kind of points to why you are heading to guitar range I guess. I'd love to try something like this!

leschirons Posted November 27, 2008 Posted November 27, 2008 Hi, Can you give me some dimensions for the neck please. I had been getting round to looking for an F bass BN6 but would be interested in seeing if your Overwater would be a possibility for my tiny pinkies. It would not work if I was not able to play some "normal" bass lines. Can't widdle and tap ALL night. Cheers Keith
Jamolah Posted November 28, 2008 Posted November 28, 2008 I remember seeing the news post about this insane bass on the Overwater website and thinking it looked pretty awesome. Hope Kevin gets a good deal on it and a new owner who'll put it through it's paces. Me? If i had the money and the guts to go ERB then...
