Bass Culture Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 (edited) Some of you, I know, were following the build thread for my Zoot ZB-1000, built for me by Mike Walsh and finished back in January. Due to various supplier and Covid-related complications it was only several weeks later that I took delivery of it. I think one or two of you were interested in what it sounded like and - albeit very late in the day - I've finally got round to demo-ing it for anyone who is still interested! It's quite a lengthy vid as it has 21 core sounds courtesy of the 6-way varitone switch and the series/single/parallel switching for the pickup. So, if you'll forgive my somewhat ropey playing, here is a new vid, with no waffle and all playing. I play through the 6 positions of the varitone switch firstly with the pickup in parallel mode, then single coil, then series, and finally in those 3 positions with the varitone switched out completely. Signal is taken (pre-amplifier) from the DI on my TC RH750 and recorded on a Focusrite Scarlett Solo.

Bass Culture Posted October 6, 2021 Author Share Posted October 6, 2021 Apologies but it only appears to have uploaded about half of the 6 minute video. NO idea what went wrong there - but you get the idea anyway. It's VERY flexible. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Munurmunuh Posted October 6, 2021 Share Posted October 6, 2021 I enjoyed the minute of playing that we got! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was only after I posted it and realised it had been cut (in half) that I also realised the first two minutes were of me waffling! Now I sort of know what I'm doing in terms of recording and uploading I'll try and do something a bit more, er, focused and replace at some point over the weekend. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_lefty Posted October 7, 2021 Share Posted October 7, 2021 Lovely looking and sounding bass. As an Aria SB fan and someone who has lusted after a Zoot for a while that ticks every box. Great sounding bass, love the top woods and the body shape too. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bass Culture Posted October 16, 2021 Author Share Posted October 16, 2021 If anyone was still interested I've changed the video. No waffle, just 3 mins of scrolling through the variety of sounds available. Relevant blurb is now in the accompanying post instead. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do it - you won't regret it. I have another one on order too, based on another well known, iconic 80's bass. Mike's delivery times have gone out to about 12 months now so I've still got a while wait for it though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
