Club Clement (Part 7: Post your basses here)

[aproud1]

A fair amount of excited anticipation on these pages. Kind of like when a baby is due.
Anyone familiar with great hard shell cases for the single cut basses?

I would imagine many of the general purpose from Gator and SKB would work. Gator has a feature on their website that helps you find a case that fits:

Click case finder at the top of the screen and enter your dimensions.

Thanks. SKB seems to be the best.

Figured there would be one out there. Another option is to call Sweetwater. They are usually happy to measure and figure out a case that will work for you.


In other news Clement #454 is in the house. Tweaking the setup and getting familiar with the sounds. It is a beauty and sounds killer. I could have unboxed, tuned up and a played a gig with no change in setup. I'm just one of those perpetually tweaking kind of people. More detailed review to come once the strings break in and I have more time with it. Taking to rehearsal tonight as my only bass if that says anything.

Very cool! Congrats in advance.

(Do you get the cute Dachshund as well?)

No, but I'm pretty sure that's Tom's Rottweiler!
He (or she) does look quite small from that angle though!

That is hilarious. I zoomed in and of course it is a Rottie. But yeah, the angle and perspective makes it easy to see a Dachshund. At least to me!

That’s funny. I initially thought same thing.

That is Steeler. Tom's dog. He is a BIG dog. But very friendly, Tom and I took him out for beers at a brewery when I visited in Jan. Oh, congrats on the new basses everyone!

 

[tjclem]

He is one big Dachshund :O)

 

[Indiedog]

He is one big Dachshund :O)

Boy howdy!

(Both breeds are German in origin so that must count for something! )

Build 467 underway...

 

[Ezmar]

Can't wait to see it. Headless 6 string, right? I've been following the Facebook page since I'm #468.

 

[Turxile]

This is probably the best place to ask.. what’s the truss rod key size in Clements?

 

[tjclem]

9/64

9-String, 64 Frets! That’s going to be huge!
