Also, MORE DOLA PICS!  |

If anyone has a 32" four string or a 34" five string to sell in a Big McNeeley, please let me know.
Thanks.

I love the sound of single coils but they're too much hum in a lot of the rooms I gig at. I've had to leave the pan dead center most of the time.
People definitely notice this bass!  |

As far as the new shape goes, I still prefer the older SCB shape and plan to order an instrument with that shape as soon as I am able. However, I do still prefer the new headstock shape and logo over the older headstock shape and logo.
It's really cool to see Cliff offering variations of a theme.

I like the look of all the shapes. The lower bout of the Ball bass sits so perfectly. |

Sorry to hear about the Hipshot tuners being hard to turn, but that is cool that they are resolving the issue. Please keep us updated.

How do you take your photographs? I mean I assume you use a tripod but how do you get the lighting so even?
Cheers
Davo, I'm sure you remember me ... |
