6 String BASS Club (Guitarists keep out!)

(No 4)

My latest catch, Le Fay Capone arrived yesterday and this one is miraculous: She wakes up when just gently swinging the strings. And after that she sings, she screams, she whispers..... she does it all :hyper::

is that a BNF-6 in gold finish?? :cool:

Yup- Tamiya (airplane model paint) Gold metal flake. She was made for Bass Center in LA in the 90's special order. George says the body is alder, with 3 pc thru neck. (which you don't see much these days)
When I bought her from the Gelb consignment shop in N. Cal. -she needed a lot work but sounded great !
Needed:
neck adjustments,
paint flaking off,
fretboard cracks,
and older passive pickups- Had the pickups upgraded to
the new ones along with preamp.
 
Here is a picture of my favorite bass to play! I have posted pictures of it on talkbass a ton of times, but I can't help it :o
I love how comfortable a six string is to play! I just ordered my third bass from CB basses, and it will be a seven stringer. Not to sure if I should have just ordered another six string!!!

I'll have to think about that one! :)
I'm only 29, so it will hopefully be a long wait!
You would be better off calling Cliff and ordering one. He has really good prices!
