fleabag Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 (edited) Very dubious about that fretboard radius. I've never seen one so severe, but i love the tone , and yes tone is very personal like the shape and wood of basses, but i love the whole thing, with some reservation about that radius. Not remotely like a Macca bass at all, but still. If it were a 4 banger, i'd get me one of those, despite looking slightly amateurish in the finish in certain areas.

Old Man Riva Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 Fascinating, that - thanks for posting. I actually found it therapeutic and calming to watch, in an odd sort of way! 2 Quote
fleabag Posted December 22, 2021 Author Posted December 22, 2021 Yeah agree, it was fab watching the build. If that exact bass was built by say, Alan at ACG, the finish would be flawless Quote
Boodang Posted December 22, 2021 Posted December 22, 2021 Coming from double bass I'm not put off by the radius. In fact the issue I normally have is that the radius on a bass guitar is normally too flat. I bet if you played the bass the radius would feel natural. 1 Quote
