That guy took me for coffee once, then led me down back alleys and other dark places...scared me. I must report him to the police.

[bassesofalessergod]

Yeah, sweatpants and a baby throwup covered T-shirt make for far more "rock" stage attire.

[oldivor]

Where's my pet rock damn it? Did you take it? :mad:

[Les Izzmor]

I thought The Rock was that wrestler guy who's now in movies.

Man. He sure let himself go.

:thumbsup:

[bassesofalessergod]

you guys know i like snazzy tricked out basses!

[sheepdog]

It reminds me of the offspring of a T40 and an older style Alembic. Interesting style.

[brake]

I bet that bass is a tone monster. What's it sound like?

[Johnny BoomBoom]

Reminds me of the school playground joke from my youth.....

"How d'you gets AIDS.......?"

"....sucking Rock's"



Nice bass BOALG........not that it's my kinda thing....but like beam says - sure has mojo!!!

Bet with you at the helm it really is one sick puppy!!!!:cool:

[Jugghaid]

I can personally vouch for the mojo. These basses have mojo like no other.

[bassesofalessergod]

it's the mojoenist mojo machine to ever mojo.

it seems like it's a bass made up of spare parts from different lawsuit basses.

the neck is a ric to a T. I wouldnt be surprised if it had the rick scale length even.

The bridge pickup is also a rickenbacker type pickup and it sounds just thisclose to a ric. the neck pickup seems to eb a leftover from the EB0 basses they made so yuo get a fat subwoofer thump from it.

It also has vol/tone vol/tone and a pickup selector swith a/b/ab AND active pickups which are SO loud as to only be useful for DI recording.

Seriously a sick bass.

Not the fastest playing, but certainly yhe best looking.

The bridge it's self looks rather Ric-ish as well.

it's an exactt replica.

if they were sitting sidedby side you couldnt tell the difference.

[knuckle_head]

Is the active side an across the board boost? What kind of active control do you have?

[The Hammer]

look for a measly $1290 and a plane ticket to Japan you can buy its guitar counterpart:D

nice!

but it's bolt on!

my bass is set neck

[Jamacuco]

I just found this on a Spanish board... Seller claims it to be an Ibanez Artist bass from 1976... Waddayathink? It looks quite different.

[Jamacuco]

Hmmmmm... I do know I'll regret this but I can't have it :( I still have to pay for my custom bass and yet another warwick that will arrive on friday...

...although I could sell the W...


...here we go again.:smack:

[bassesofalessergod]

you can be sure no one will show up with the same bass.


gotta LOVE the looks of a double cutaway

I like the looks of the P pickup.

[Jamacuco]

I like the looks of the P pickup.

Isn't it too close to the neck for proper clarity/punchyness? I do know it is not like an EB-0 "mudbucker" but it makes me wonder about the clarity it may deliver played fingerstyle.

I don't know if that's such a big deal. :dunno:

You've got a bridge PU you can dial in too...;)

[mnemosyne's lobotomy]

Tone must be really interesting with the P right at the neck and the bridge pup set all the way against the bridge. Some pretty big extremes there. Mids are gonna be grindy, bottom end is gonna be boomy.
Needs a thumbrest with all of that space in the middle.

[Bogster]

Let me get this straight-the blurred bassplayer guy smokes rock??? :confused:

I'm confusled...:shrug:
