Resurrecting this thread. Accidentally happened upon the Rockbass version on Sweetwater and couldn’t resist. Strung it with TI flats and took it to rehearsal. Thumbs up from the band. Producer switch had me confused at first - then I remembered. Anyone else scored one?

Ye-, my bad. Edited.

I don’t care about the weight or the scale. Sell it to me.

\From the website: “The Apollo Series is the perfect harmony between old and new. With a wooden body and carbon fiber neck, you’ll get an experience unlike any electric bass on the market. The consistent structure of the carbon neck allows you to tune less and play more. Every fret sings...

Custom built by Karl Hoyt, who apparently is not building any more 5 string basses in order to concentrate on acoustic instruments. I have a fretted Hoyt that I’m keeping but fretless is just not for me. The body is a gorgeous slab fashioned by Karl, who found it in a northeatsern mill; it...

Well, I bought one. I think it’s a D5? The one that looks like an early P, 51 or so. So far, I’m impressed. Fretwork is good. No pops or clicks with the pots. Sounds good. A lot like an old P bass. It’s the ‘vintage’ white w/black pickguard, which I wish was tort. Fun to play!

Still abailable. I won’t be sad if I end up keeping it.

trying to send you a PM as we speak

I don't know squat about anything so let's just so stipulate...but I've been playing bass for a long time (and should be better than I am) and have been through a METRIC F-TON of basses from the same amount of manufacturers. Bought my first Music Man in 1978 and should have just kept that...

medium-shot PM your way

It's a good bass, made in USA for under 1K. Have you seen his other designs?

I put the LaBellas on and let it get used to my house. It thumps nicely! I have a few passive basses around because people make fun of you if you don't have those. I like this bass. It won't replace the 2 Music Man basses I use regularly but it is fun to play and records well. You guys...
