[quote name='BigRedX' post='1152036' date='Mar 6 2011, 11:07 PM']Nice! Do you still have this bass?[/quote]

Yep, and it's making a rare appearance at my next gig in a fortnight after a year off playing. Just hope I can do it justice!

It's cool - if I was ordering another OW it would along these lines - I'm into my Fender 75RI at the moment, but I'm sure one of these would be better!!

I'm good thanks - tired but good, that's what a 16 week old, plus a full time job and gigging does for you - not to mention the freelance stuff!

Hope all is well with you, I must get up to Carlisle again soon :)

Take care...

This one's mine now.

I call it Poirot, can you see why ?

My brand new 6-string fretless Progress III arrived today; blown away doesn't even describe it. I'll probably post some more pictures later with a decent camera, but for now it's play times!

The pickups look like they're made of chocolate :).

I didn't browse the whole of this thread so this bass may have featured here before having been owned by BCer Floyd Elgar..

Apologies if this is the case but I hope you enjoy the photos anyway now that the bass is living with me..

If there is a prize for the worst-quality photograph of the week, I'd like to respectfully put my name forward.

Nice bass, crap photo.

My pair of Overwater Progress III basses. The fretted is maple burl top, the fretless is Spanish Olive.

Just about to order an Ash 5 string Jazz from Chris and the team in the next few weeks.

Best,

Phil

Here is my new Overwater SD. I've added a few options - 26 fret, brass nut.

Wonderful bass to play & the sound is awesome.

I'll post up some better pic's next week.

Did the C bass and the normal version ever have an actual model name or number associated with it? I usually refer to them as Overwater Originals but I remember seeing a reprinted review from early 80s which mentioned a model number in the title of the article but cannot remember what it was.
Must get the jack socket on BettyBlue fixed she is a fantastic bass despite her dead spot....

Edit i think I've found out they were designated OS 957 (unless the 957 was the serial number for the guarantee I saw on eBay)
