...Dare I say it?...
Well, I guess if I had the money, I'd order me a custom Rim job...

Yet another Tool shirt.....this one looks much newer though.
I also really like your headstock design. That top piece looks great finished....really came alive. |

| | | | Thats how i designed it, it doesnt effect playablity, purely for aesthetics.
it was based on a single cut design with a bit chopped out. |

Robbie Here from RIM Basses,the bass is now finished and looks great.It sounds good too,playing it thru my Mesa 400+ and 2 Acme B2 cabs it has a great piano like tone and a lovely slap sound.     
Going to be doing some soundclips next week and some studio pics also,
Cheers,
Robbie. | | Thread Tools | Search this Thread | | | |
