John's Overwater Retrospective

[jwbassman]

Not really a diary but just found a couple of pics from when my bass was being built, why do they always look so cool when they're work in progress?

so decided to take some of it as it is now - the complete bass and 4 years of gigging later...

That's nice. Nothing too overstated or flashy. A very honest looking bass and I like it a lot

[jwbassman]

Glad you like it

I'm not into flash - just quality;)

It's a great bass to play and sounds awesome - I'm trying to save up to get an Overwater fretted jazz 5, but I'm along way off right now

Easily the best bass I've owned, not that there have been many but it seemed a logical progression, and to think I initially only went to get a padded strap! Laurence could sell ice to the eskimos

This bass is quite possibly the best piece of musical gear I have ever bought - and can't recommend them highly enough - check out the websites [url="http://www.overwater.co.uk/"]here[/url] and [url="http://www.overwater.co.uk/"]here[/url]

I should be on commission

I have always been curious about Overwater stuff. A mate of mine was offered an endorsement with them a while back and I have always liked the look of the Progress. Just never had chance to play one!

Where abouts are you?

If you can get up to Carlisle then the guys are more than willing to let you try some stuff out, really helpful too...
