The Shrek Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 (edited) Hey guys my Overwater is no longer mine, but I am happy to say she will be winging her way to a great guy who will use the guitar the way it is meant to be used!

JD1 Posted October 13, 2009 Share Posted October 13, 2009 That looks like the one leprechaun had as its an unusual pup config for Overwater. If it is then its a helluva bass. I borrowed it for some gigs a couple of years ago and it sounded / played great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would give my life to own a new Spitfire but there's no way i can afford it! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always knew that bass players were the salt of the earth, the good guys, the dependable ones, the intelligent ones, the best looking ones, the coolest ones .....etc etc etc!
