lawriemacmillan Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 (edited) My beautiful Expression fretless 5...which may possibly appear in the For Sale thread very soon :-( Edited September 14, 2012 by lawriemacmillan Quote
BassBus Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 I would love to hear some sound samples of the Expression. Never seen a fretless before. Just beautiful! Quote
tayste_2000 Posted September 14, 2012 Posted September 14, 2012 I'm looking for a fretless overwater in the new year, shoot me a PM with details I'm in the Scotland area in the next few weeks so could maybe give it a try? Cheers Quote

overwaterstephen Posted September 28, 2012 Posted September 28, 2012 My Original (could do with a polish and a slightly more artistic setting, but meh...) Quote

Kees_SoS Posted June 13, 2013 Posted June 13, 2013 Is that a fretless Fusion at the back? Do you have any pics of it in full view? [quote name='k50' timestamp='1314805541' post='1357712'] [attachment=88346:DSC00010.jpg] My contribution to the thread. [/quote] Quote
k50 Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 Well spotted, the bass was made in 91 and i bought it from Chris in 95.

Kees_SoS Posted June 16, 2013 Posted June 16, 2013 Very pretty. I've always been a fan off the body shape. What are the specs? 36" scale with 18mm spacing? The Jazzes look pretty impressive, too!

Kees_SoS Posted August 1, 2013 Posted August 1, 2013 [quote name='pablo100' timestamp='1299426551' post='1151552'] Sorry for the quality of the pic, but this is the best photo I've got of me playing my Overwater... [attachment=74068:earlefest07.jpg] [/quote] Beautiful-looking Original Series. Do you still have it? Quote
OutSpoon Posted August 6, 2013 Posted August 6, 2013 Just did the 1st gig with my new (old) Overwater Perception. Love it! It's a 2006 and was originally made for Scott Devine. Has both a fretted and fretless neck. Such a simple and easy to play bass. Quote
Harry Posted August 23, 2013 Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) One of my new custom builds, well stunning and really pleased [attachment=142168:Harry's 6 string - email size.jpg] [attachment=142169:Harry's 6 string back - email size.jpg] Edited November 9, 2013 by Harry Quote
ambient Posted November 7, 2013 Posted November 7, 2013 Some great looking basses here, I may soon be joining this merry band . Gotta say I've never actually played an Overwater, though I have heard one often enough to know how they can sound. Quote
