El Bajo Posted February 4, 2010 Share Posted February 4, 2010 I didn't receive any email , however the competition rules state that the winner will receive an email on Friday the 31st January. Said date actually falls on a Sunday making the competition invalid. I think they should re-do the competition!!!! Its left a bitter taste in my mouth that I didn't win :snob: .

Jono Posted February 11, 2010 Share Posted February 11, 2010 It's on the Overwater site now so I can announce I am the incredibly lucky winner of the Overwater comp. I just couldn't believe it when an email from Chris May popped into my inbox on Tuesday night, asking me to contact him. One phone call and a million thank yous later and I couldn't get the smile off my face. I'm just getting some initial thoughts together on the spec but even after years of lusting after a custom build that's not easy. A trip to Carlisle is definitely on the cards. I will of course keep you updated on progress. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Bajo Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Congratulations man!!! No comes the hard part. So do you go for the acustic electro because you've always fancied one just to have to hand for a quick practice but theres always been more important things to spend money on, do you go for a sexy J bass with Overwaters beautiful finish, or do you completly go all out and get a 6 string progress bass with all the trimmings because you know you would never in a million years be able to buy one, though it would never be used for stage performaces because its to precious. This is the biggest decision of your bass playing life, choose wisely Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WalMan Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 Can I just say ..... Nice one and congrats, but still Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Huw Foster Posted February 12, 2010 Share Posted February 12, 2010 I had no idea about this comp until now, but I daresay I'm still really jealous! Massive congrats though. I'd only imagine winning something like that would spoil me. Hopefully you won't have the same issue! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever you end up going for, you're not going to be disappointed - these are my dream basses! If you're into fretless you can have a go on mine, and we have a Jazz 5 with frets in the shop, just up at Cleckheaton near M62 Jn.26 You'll enjoy Carlisle!
