Self assembled Precision "The Wife" Style bass

[Auslander]

Hi everybody! this is my first topic and i hope to not do mistakes!

I'm from Italy and since five years i follow this great and fine Bass forum. I've known some Basschat members and do several business with them overall about Ken Smith and Fodera basses.

I play doublebass in Gipsy Jazz Quartet ensemble and hard rock / blues in Trio ensemble.

I'm very happy to introduce to You all my head bass, self assembled!

 

Specs are:

 

- Alder body with hand pyrographed "dead tree", true-oil hand finish

- MIM Fender P51 neck with brass nut and Fender D-tuner

- Dimarzio Relentless neck pickup  with volume pot and series/parallel bobine selector)

- Dimarzio relentless middle pickup with volume and passive tone pots

- Stereo/Mono output selector

- hand satin bridge and bridge cover

 

It sounds very powerful with huge lowend and round highs. I use with my Helix Stomp for emulate Billy Sheehan sound and many other vintage style of sound since old P to Gibson EB0, Hofner style sound and many other with effects or in dry mode...

Very nice work, I love the pyrographed tree.

Too many knobs, switches and sockets for me BUT................. the neck, body, black scratchplate and pyro'd tree combination is stunning.
