Rayman Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 (edited) For sale, is my [i]beautiful[/i] Overwater. 5 stringer, mahogany body, Pear wood top, through 36" scale neck with purple heart stripes. An instrument of the highest quality and out of my league to be honest. Recently been back to the factory for an ebony ramp to be fitted (not seen in pics), which is only stuck down with double sided tape between the pickups, easily removable, and leaves no marks. SOLD.

bobbass4k Posted May 4, 2009 Posted May 4, 2009 why is every bass that comes up for sale that I'd love a 5 string? oh well, I could always use it as a strap..........
Rayman Posted May 7, 2009 Author Posted May 7, 2009 Looking for a nice Stingray 5 stringer in a trade. I'm a bit picky about colours though, nothing too wierd , natural would be fab. Why???? Don't ask.

BassistJonathan Posted May 7, 2009 Posted May 7, 2009 I want it! Only problem is the money lol! Unless you fancy my Jaguar and the rest in money, jags are quite easy to sell for cash, the only reason I cant personally do it, is that its my only current bass and I need one for gigging.

Rayman Posted May 7, 2009 Author Posted May 7, 2009 Ahhh....you'd love the low B, and I'd love the '78 .

Rayman Posted May 8, 2009 Author Posted May 8, 2009 A picture with the (easily removable) ramp, made from ebony @ Overwater by Martin................
hubrad Posted May 8, 2009 Posted May 8, 2009 It even LOOKS gorgeous! Anyone who gets this will be blown away long term! I've just got the 35" fretless version.. first gig last night and I'm still buzzing!
Rayman Posted May 8, 2009 Author Posted May 8, 2009 Cheers for that mate, fretless eh? I bet that sounds out of this world. Lined or unlined?

Kongo Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 What in the world does a 36" scale feel like to play? Surely you can feel the difference on that?
Rayman Posted May 9, 2009 Author Posted May 9, 2009 I didn't actually. I expected the strings to be tighter, but they really aren't, it's one of the most comfortable basses I've ever played, it's just got one too many strings for me. The low B is killer.
Stan_da_man Posted May 9, 2009 Posted May 9, 2009 Whoever has bought this has got themselves a bargain! Overwater's are just brilliant basses.
