Stingray5 Posted July 16, 2009 Share Posted July 16, 2009 Not surprised Overwater don't want to take it off of their site. That's a beaut! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarnacleBob Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 That is a cracking bass. What is the weight like? I have a 4 string version and it weighs less than 7lbs!!!! When I got it delivered I thought the guy had scammed me and sent an empty flightcase BB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great Actually I think I've gone mad(der). It's definitely quite light - I'll stick it on the scales tonight in fact. However, it feels oddly heavy on the strap after a bit of playing. I'll probably have to fiddle about with the strap length etc. and I'm only using one of those poxy Fender cloth straps. The Gator (?) case it comes in, on the other hand, is the biggest, heaviest case I have ever seen. I could hardly get the thing back to the car!!

One bass on there is now on sale 2nd hand in a shop.. tastissimo bass all the same! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
