Bassfinger Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) The photo make it look a bit stark, it's much more brown and subdued without the flash, and the ash is much less yellow. Edited July 10, 2020 by Bassfinger Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PaulThePlug Posted July 10, 2020 Share Posted July 10, 2020 (edited) Maple or Rosewood fret board? I do wish P bass were rear routed / control cavity... the body shape just says function would look so simple and elegant with just the split coil and 2 knobs.. maybe an edge jack or stratocaster jack plate... get to see more wood... and a neck with no fingerborad inlays... wish i had the skills to make one, or the money to have one made...

You’re almost describing a Yamaha bb1200 (except they don’t sound like a p bass) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agonized over that question for some time, but the neckmis on the way and the fretboard is... Rosewood. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hellzero Posted July 11, 2020 Share Posted July 11, 2020 I can name each of them if you want. They are in total alphabetic and chronologic order too. I'm a bit of a maniac when it gets to classification. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wilco Posted July 12, 2020 Share Posted July 12, 2020 (edited) Great thread. Nothing against them, but can’t see myself ever acquiring a painted bass again - just not aesthetically pleasing enough for me these days. Here’s mine - all current crop (BTB now added).

It was that blue Ibby of yours that finally pushed me over the edge to buy my four string version! As mentioned elsewhere, yours has one of the nicest tops seen on one of those - can’t believe you’re selling it! That green one (a Shuker?) - that’s definitely a ‘forever’ bass ain’t it - bloody gorgeous!! Edited July 12, 2020 by Wilco Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it doesn't sell I am not going to be too unhappy TBH, I am just justifying the Shuker, the more the credit card gets paid off, the less justification I need. Also having already sold two other basses, if another couple of cheap ones go, I will probably keep it. 41 minutes ago, Wilco said: That green one (a Shuker?) - that’s definitely a ‘forever’ bass ain’t it - bloody gorgeous!! Yeh, the Shuker Uberhorn. Seriously in love with that thing, just walk past it and think wow, but as it is, it plays so well too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
