CameronJ Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 I’ve said it before on similar threads but I’ll say it again... You will not find a better bass for this money! Excellent instruments. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Al Krow Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Ah, my old bass, which I really regretted moving on!! So much so, in fact, that I've gone and got another BB425 to replace it... GLWTS - whoever buys this will be in for a treat. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dannybuoy Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 Which Darkglass pedal are you looking to get? You might find someone willing to trade. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swaff Posted April 27, 2019 Author Share Posted April 27, 2019 Currently after an Alpha Omega but would also consider any of the ones with a 4 band EQ. I'm definitely open to trades on it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Krow Posted April 27, 2019 Share Posted April 27, 2019 (edited) For the record, the punch of the P pups on this BB425 pretty much floors any other bass neck pup I've played before or since. I remember Tom's grin very vividly when we met up to do a bass swap and he played it for the first time Edited April 27, 2019 by Al Krow Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Conan Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 What an odd bridge! What's the string spacing please? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have to say, it makes for an excellent B string tension! I believe it's 18mm, however I can have a measure after work to double check.

It's to give the B extra heft 👍 I'm hoping that this is still here when I sell my Geddy jazz. These are really good basses 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Swaff Posted April 29, 2019 Author Share Posted April 29, 2019 Alpha Omega now purchased so this is now cash only to replace the void in my savings! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dannybuoy Posted April 29, 2019 Share Posted April 29, 2019 At least this will allow you to try the BB with the Alpha Omega, they sound great together! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
