kevbass Posted March 29, 2010 Posted March 29, 2010 Anyone here a left handed slipknot fan? if so could be a little bargain going for you here [url="http://www.gumtree.com/london/26/56191726.html"]http://www.gumtree.com/london/26/56191726.html[/url] Quote
throwoff Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 I played this when it first came out, being a lefty I had to! I totally fell in love, I have not felt such a decent bass at that price in many a moon. The perculiar bridge seems to add decades of sustain and the neck is wonderful. Alas I depise slipknot and could not live with the fretmarkers. I cant event just get a new neck because thats one of its biggest selling points! There is a temptation to buy it and get a new board put on but then im looking at close to 1k all told and could of just bought another Stingray! Quote
josh3184 Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 I'm having similar thoughts, if it was just lefty I'd be all over that but the fret markers are just ghastly Quote
throwoff Posted March 30, 2010 Posted March 30, 2010 Im seriously tempted to speak to a luthier about getting a new board on it, Or perhaps wait another year till it gets cheaper and attempt the job myself, I know its a big job but I think with some of my friends experience I could get through it!
