That looks like one of the most comfortable basses to play, and a real beauty too!

For the guys that asked for a sound sample, here is a video I shot of Alan playing his bass at his place, the sound is so-so because this was filmed using a small digital photo camera, it does give a good idea of the sound of the bass though.

At the bottom is two audio tracks of the bass Alan recorded for my website. He's DI'ing the bass into Protools with no effects at all. There's 3 tracks of bass in + keyboard and software drums in there too.

Very impressive Phil! That's an awesome bass. I have one in the shop right now which is more or less the same idea - 6 string fanned, although mine will be a headless. Unless somebody wants to buy it I'm planning for it to be my own bass!
