Clarky Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Originally custom made for Kev Hopper (like my fretless ACG), this is a stunning little bass with 32" scale and ultra slim neck (1.35" nut). Obviously the design takes inspiration from Carl Thompson. Conveniently the initials are the same as my FaceBook moniker Clarky Bass, in case I forget who I am. Plays super fast and sounds very gnarly. As does my (pictured) sausage dog Pablo 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eude Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 Love it! I've played that very bass too when Kev had it, I can confirm that it does play super fast and does indeed sound gnarly 😎 Eude 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassTool Posted October 8, 2020 Share Posted October 8, 2020 (edited) Thought I'd update this thread with some visible pics as the @Clarky ones appear to have gone. Interesting to see this was once Kev Hoppers bass, presumably he commissioned it. I love it, it's a beautifully crafted bass with Nordstrand pups encased in ebony surrounds with matching ramp and knobs and it to my ears, sounds great. One of my mates calls it my Salvador Dali bass Edited October 8, 2020 by BassTool Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted October 8, 2020 Author Share Posted October 8, 2020 Actually Kev Hopper's bass was another CB I owned! That one was fretted, holly topped and maple necked. Glad you are loving the fretless! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
