Club Fbass (thread 13)

[Bassworship1]

This is the best looking Fbass I've ver seen.

Man, I was trying to tell myself it wouldn't be that good!! I'm finding that bass really tempting, how did the neck feel and how heavy was it? Thanks!

It was a neck through, with a fancy top, and basically every option. I have to say, it is one of the best F basses I have every played. If I wasn't so in love with my current BN5, I would have been sorely tempted to pick it up for myself. As it is, I did order a 40th Anniversary 4-string...

I LOVE the look of the exposed pole pieces on that dual coil loaded BN5. That is a serious looker.

Does anyone here have an alder VF with a trans finish? I'm just curious how good they look.

 

[BassJuju]

Yes, this one is alder. I love it’s tone more than any other jazz and it is equally beautiful. The grain isn’t as pronounced as the ash, but it is a bit lighter and the tone is still killer. These are the photos from the website. I have a few but I thought these show the grain better and are better lit as well.

I was having a conversation with some guys about getting an acoustic sounding tone. I'm so grateful I have the first ever 6-string version of this bass.

I've been lusting over an ACC-6 for a very long time.
If I ever buy another bass it will be an ACC-6 (with a few alterations).
Money is the only object.
F Bass is the only bass I'll ever play again given the choice.

I totally agree... nothing else compares.

Few more months till my build.... few more months...

 

[ThumbyAche]

I have a brownburst Bn5 that is really nice but I'm looking for a bn4 or vf4 if anybody is looking to trade..

There's nothing sweeter, or more torturous than waiting on a F build to be completed.

Tell me about it.... gah... haha
Got a SUPER sweet VF on order. Can’t wait to share it with you guys.

What a nice board. Is the body ash?

Yes sir!
Ash/maple 70’s pups.

I hope they finish yours soon, then they can work on mine! If I'm lucky the flame in my board will look as nice. What kind of finish for the body did you go with?

Transparent sea foam green! I think with the birdseye and the trans finish it will be a nice mixture of vintage/modern look.

What did you get? And what model?

 

[FingerDub]

Challah bread? Huh?
