steve Posted September 17, 2007 Share Posted September 17, 2007 my new baby, bought it from SC in Salford, one hell of a bass for £215, really, really punchy [attachment=2345:DSC00475.JPG][attachment=2346:DSC00476.JPG] the pics are a bit poor, but I'm particularly taken by the grain on the fretboard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve Posted September 30, 2007 Author Share Posted September 30, 2007 so I decided togo with the neck pup cover. I'd had it stuck on for a week or so with no nails tape stuff. Looks cool, but in a much more utilitarian light, it encouraged me to explore plucking the strings in different positions (I hadn't realised how little I had explored this), which made me look at varying how hard I was plucking the strings...... I could go on anyway, it's looking like this at the moment [attachment=2538:DSC00487.JPG] I love the unintentional soft focus . I'm still considering putting on a set of black beauties Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul Cooke Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 got mine on Friday... took it to a jam session yesterday... the others loved it and the tone I was getting. I won't be doing anything to it yet except put some flats on when I've played out the original strings... I'm also thinking of putting a ramp on between the neck and the neck pickup...
