I think it was Lothar Walter of Station Music in Germany who said to me that Siggi is considered the Godfather of Fretless in Germany. So don't #$%&@ with this bass

Killer players, the both of 'em... I'm talkin' to yoos, Woods!!

Check out Kevin's clips as linked from the picture and youtube reference...

A Jazz cat, oh yeah!!!

Too bad I don't live in your area...

Killer sounding bass, but what bass wouldn't sound killer in Kevins hands...

[Hot Pocket]

Bump for any Human, even Kevin!

I have had a number of the GERMAN Humans and they have all been EXQUISITE instruments.

Hey Hey Dan,

It's not too custom. But yeah, I picked out the top here in the US and had it drop shipped to Germany, and I picked out the electronics. The measurements were naturally similar to what I would like, especially the 18mm at the bridge.

As far as the tone, I really don't want to prejudice the sale with all sorts of esoteric tone babble, taking everyone down the rabbit hole with me on this one ...I just went a little too modern when I should have gotten a more "traditional" fretless 6, he he. I have the Veillette, which is smokin'. But I have actually never had a solid-body fretless that quite worked for me. Although I am making a decision now concerning a very nice Hanewinckel that I have...

I would say that if someone has a nice Fender, or something like that, this would be a great addition that takes them in a somewhat more modern direction.

Cheers to all, and thank you for your compliments. It's nice to get a little good press.

EDIT:

Hey Hot Pocket, I would say that you could send me a pm on the trade concept. I originally thought no way, but something like that might actually work. Thank you!

PM'd a few ideas back at you and I do have other items as well.

PS, I NEVER shoulda listed yo your link: Veillette Paris. Now I have to have one!

Tremendous playing, as always, Kevin.

Added a few pix to the mix last night.

The finish is super classy, and feels great to hold; a very inviting satin type of finish.

Come and get it.

[Hot Pocket]

My bumpin' thumb is getting sore. bump

[Kevin Woods]

T.T.T.

[Kevin Woods]

To da moon!!!

[Hot Pocket]

Ugh! How many times can a man bump without losing the use of his thumb?

These GERMAN made Humans are apparently the best kept secret in the US.

Just phenomenal basses . . . BUMP to the moon - (Neptune's moon)

[Kevin Woods]

Snag this bad boy!

Uncompromising, unrelenting, and implacable fretless growl here for the taking.
