As we type Jimmy is working on a hum canceled J for a PJ.. ..
But is not something that is off the table anymore... It is being worked on at we type...


Hey Ken,
Can't AC make a bass that is an Ash/Maple, with the 60's pickup spacing if you ask them to? That doesn't seem like an outlandish request. Also, I was wondering if AC would do a PJ model if you asked them to. Or are they really devoted to vintage-legit concepts only?
 
I dont know . I kind of dig the song.. she wasnt pitchy dog!:smug: She owned that stage... and the camera... if she plays her cards right she could really have a great career... if she can be that confident at 17 when shes 25 she will kick some tail.. of course after the boyfriend breakups, drug rehab stuff.. :)
I am not that critical of new talent as some folks are.. its a new thing. and there is good in there.. and i give credit for not lip syncing and really singing..
But she did have tha Lady Gaga holding the hand up ion the air blocking the sun out sort of pose.. Thats the new thing in current choreography i guess . Ya see it everywhere.

Buy Vashon layed it down with the drums for a great march vibe....


The Cyrus song is pretty aweful, but she looks way better in leather pants than I do! Her success is simply proof that marketing dollars trumps talent every time... The Bass sound is absolutely slamming though!
 
Hi dear AC´s Owners and fans,

My name is Tommy, I live in South America and I´m an Alleva Coppolo, user and dealer from my area. I just want to share some pictures of my beauty one piece body EUT5 in Vintage White Nitro exact as the finish on the new Paul Turner LG5... This bass sounds Monster and I´m so happy with AC Basses. I´m a fan of the classic sounds and immediately I receive my new AC bass I made a contest with my Jazz 76 and I need confest that the AC is the only 5 strings that is very close to match all the tones of my vintage Jazz, the feel and balance string to string is amazing in pasive mode...but when you start the preamp...this turns in a tone moster!!!

Enjoy the pictures and nice group!!!

Bajos congrats with your AC !

Great looking bass, is that the colour Olympic White or AGED Olympic White, you are using the colour Vintage White so i am confused.

On the third pic the colour seems like AGED Olympic White ( a bit yellowish) with a black pickguard?

Enjoy and welcome to the Alleva Coppolo Famiglia!
 
yeah the nitro finishes on the ACs are really crazy....my KBP5 (nitro burst) is only 2 years old, I've only owned it for a few months and already a huge chunk of paint has chipped away from it rubbing against my bag when I'm walking around with it in NYC....it looks dope though!

What bag are you using? Nitro is a bit fussy, and you really need a soft bag lining with no plastic. I use the Mono bag with mine, and it still looks new after 2 years.
