lowpainter Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 Hi guys, Well, the blue 5string original I had in the eighties was my first 5 string bass ! I ordered it directly from Chris at Overwater. Should not have sold it, but then again: lots of basses I have had the pleasure of playing, I should have kept. Sometimes the gas is playing tricks with your mind if you get me.:-) I'm in the race for an original at this moment. Very nice basses ! I love the shape !

Kees_SoS Posted September 28, 2014 Share Posted September 28, 2014 (edited) That's one I've never seen before. Do you perhaps have a few photos you could share? It seems more Overwaters have made their way over to the Netherlands than I thought, soon to be joined by my new five-string fretted, which is still under construction.

lowpainter Posted October 8, 2014 Share Posted October 8, 2014 I have at least one picture with me and the Blue 5string Overwater. But where.........Tried to find it but until now nothing. Question of time :-) What kind of Overwater will it be, the one you've ordered ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
