demanufacture Posted December 26, 2009 Share Posted December 26, 2009 Hello. My name is Rafal and I'm writing from Poland I'm not native English speaker so please don't be angry for my weak English knowledge I'm playing bass from about 5 years and I'm constructing amplification (today basscabs but I'm finishing my own bass amp I will show it when it will be ready). I'm a carbon fiber maniac and I love bases which are have carbon fiber necks or are fully made of it for example Status or Modulus my gear: - Musicman Cutlass bass made in '83 (carbon fiber neck ) - Trace Elliot AH100 GP7 (series 6) - this amp is only for a moment but it sounds good or its price - DMNF 410 cab (it's cab build by myself with my own speakers ) Gear I had but I sold it: - Mesa Boogie 1516BE Diesel - Ampeg SVT 2p preamp - Sansamp RBI - Korg DTR2 (I'm going to buy it again ) - EBS TD600 Fafner PS and again sorry for my English and Merry Christmas Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you'd had an instrument that was capable of low action I would have been booking air tickets to Poland. Does the headstock say Cutlass or Cutlass 1?

Kiwi Posted December 30, 2009 Share Posted December 30, 2009 Oh really?! No 1 after 'cutlass' on the headstock? Yours is one of the earliest by the sound of it. Out of interest do you know what the date on the neck is? The neck will have a series of three numbers handwritten in black marker under the finish. (Although supposedly made from 1980, I've yet to find a Cutlass that wasn't made in '83 or '84.) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
