No case came when I purchased but I can include an excellent condition Fender gigbag that fits the larger body of the Waterstone nicely.

I'm usually a pretty conservative guy when it comes to basses but...

That is freakin' sweet looking! What's it sound like?

PU's are pretty hot, It's actually a well rounded bass in it's tone, it's got rounds on it now and I've never tried flats so no opinion there. if anything it has a pretty prominent low end, not a ton of treble but it's there. If you notice the treble pickup, it's more forward towards the neck and not near the bridge.

Of course playing with a pick will add to the bite and highs. I've demo'd a Epiphone RumbleKat before and it's in the ballpark but not a clone.

How's the balance? And is it a full hollowbody or chambered? Interested...

balances fine. it's not heavy towards the headstock and the larger body alleviate any neck dive. It's semi-hollow, chamber near the f-hole.

Would you ship to Canada? Or would that cost a fortune?

No problem shipping to our friends up North. May need to charge a bit extra though for additional shipping cost.

sse1990 · #15 03-26-2010, 07:54 PM

Is that the same one that is listed on ebay? Also would you be including that gigbag mentioned earlier? Is there any reason why you are selling?

sse1990 · #16 03-26-2010, 10:26 PM

Payment on it's way in the morning!!!

funkingroovin · #17 03-27-2010, 12:54 AM

Arrgh! That's what I get for havin' a few pints to think about it!! Congrats,looks like a sweet bass!

sse1990 · #18 03-27-2010, 07:45 AM

PAYMENT SENT.

Wonder how I am going to sleep now??

Funny thing is that up until about 2 weeks ago I had no interest in a semi-hollow or hollow body bass.

EDIT: Nevermind I figured it out. First time I heard that term. I suffer from GAS with any hobby though. I started photography as a hobby and I already have 2 DSLR bodies and a couple nice lenses. One lens is worth more than the camera bodies.
