The P pickup on mine sounds great. Very deep, but still in a spot that seems to be pretty lively.

I am thinking about using a solid piece of redwood and bookmatching it for the body, not totally sold out yet. Anyway, I'm sitting on a mountian of this stuff for a while now, below is a link to some pictures and the story on how I ran across the stuff.

I would love to hear what that sounds like. I love the redwood top. I have no idea what it would sound like as the body wood. I'll be following this with interest!
I am very jealous of your slab stockpile.
Should be an interesting batch, although I haven't been disappointed by any batches yet. I still think it's funny when all basses in the batch have something in common like all Nordstrands or all are Ball shaped.
Yes, I love it when I get to see another Rami shape made..... I am really wanting to try one out. It should be fun watching these!

I'm also very interested in seeing how this Rami turns out. For some reason, it works extremely well visually with figured walnut. Not sure why.
It's really funny, tonight i was looking at Cliff's website and this thread and Jeez! the rami is a sweet looking bass....
I normally prefer basses with a smaller footprint, i think by using smaller horn, the Rami may suits me better, i will ask Cliff if he ever done a 4 string Rami before...Will i have the first Rami 4 build for me?
Any one of you knows if there have been a Rami 4 before?
To all the Rami owners here, how do you like the shape and feel of your Rami?
Thanks

I don't think Cliff has any bad shapes, but I think the Rami is a nice semi-conventional shape. I'll be getting the first Rami 6, but the rest have been 5 strings at this point. I'd think a 4 string would be as cool.

Zebra bass in action. Bass is pretty nice in the mix. A little more honky than I usually like it but it kills regardless

heavenI'm looking forward to seeing the 4 string Big McNeely, Scott.
What made you go for a 4 string this time? If I may ask?

I always play differently on a four string, and I like playing a four string when it is drop "D". As I get older, I have been noticing that I have been moving from a 6 to a 5... now to 4.
This bass was a lot of fun coming up with all the ideas with Cliff, so I can't wait to see it finished. I'm excited to see if Cliff will post some new pics today.
