Grand Wazoo Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 (edited) The Perfect Bass have pics of the exact same specs of the Big Al 5 which I have on order. (eta June/July) with the exception of the pickguard which I chose in plain white, this one is perloid but the rest of the combo is exactly as I've ordered it and gives me a close idea of what my bass will look like, what you reckon?

Musicman20 Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Tis a stunner! That shape is just brilliant. Im even liking Bongos now. I cannot wait for mine. BTW - rumour has it that my Classic Ray should be here within hours Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dub_junkie Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 great looking bass I had a Sterling in the same candy apple red/maple,great combo imo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeftyJ Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Very pretty! I would have chosen a 'stranger' colour to accentuate the bodyshape, like Dargie Delight, True Gold or Olive Gold, but this looks great too! (too bad the Dargie Delight only comes with a rosewood board though) Then again, I have nothing to choose, as there is no and won't be any lefthanded Big Al, let alone a 5-string Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted May 18, 2010 Share Posted May 18, 2010 Nice colour. Goes well with the pearly plate and maple neck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fat Rich Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 For some reason it reminds me of the wonky perspective and retro '50s look of Ren & Stimpy [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8ZlO76-BpA&feature=related"]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k8ZlO76-BpA...feature=related[/url] Very nice bass.

paul h Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 Fantastic looking bass. Nice one. I absolutely have no idea why there aren't more three single coil basses around. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sean Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 (edited) My Lord! It's got more knobs than all the ampless support bands at local summer festival put together! Seriously though, I kinda like it. The contours make it look comfy and it appears well balanced with that long horn. Edited May 20, 2010 by Sean Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Musicman20 Posted May 20, 2010 Share Posted May 20, 2010 (edited) I CANNOT wait for mine! Let us know when yours gets here! I've had to cancel the Classic Ray...I won't go into it as it's being dealt with, but there were a few issues when it arrived. Shame. Ah well, 2 other EBMMs incoming.
