New Eastwood Semi-Hollow Short Scale 5er

Have to say, not many other options for something like this. Plus it looks good to boot!

That looks pretty damn amazing! 

 

But I won't be getting it at that price.

Seye is a cool guy and that's a really interesting design. I had a Map bass for a while and dug it, so would like to try one of these. Unfortunately with the Eastwood strategy I think they'll all be pre-orders and a single run so not likely to hit shops.

I like the design, but I don't like them always going for simple off-the-shelf parts. Those are regular P90 guitar pickups with a closed cover, like they do regularly on other bass models too (guitar humbuckers with closed covers). I understand they want to keep the price down, and they're probably only building a small run so having a bespoke pickup made for these isn't economically viable. But it still annoys me a bit
