Coolest F-Hole?

[Ben Coffin]

After GASing for a semihollow so hard, I wanted to see what people thought were the coolest f-holes on semi-hollow or hollow body basses. My two favorites are the Enfield Basses by Martin Sims, and the Dingwall Afterburner series.

What do you think?

You mean this? I think Atkinson basses are great. Love his relics. I like the Ken Lawrence one. The flow wows me.

It was the F holes that drew me to the "Unorthodox Guitars" Viola body for my parts bass.

The f hole is not so spectacular, but I love this bass.

and then there are these sweet holes.

That is peppered cheese being used as bridge saddles?

Well, I'd like to say that I'm the coolest a-hole.

Not a bass, but here's a guitar I made that has a pretty neat f-hole (IMHO). It's times new roman.

I like the "f" hole very much!

 

[Moe Monsarrat]

"The F Holes"..... pretty good band name.

Here's my new Carvin SH550B

 

[Ben Coffin]

"The F Holes"..... pretty good band name.

One of the bands in the Rock band program at the music store where I work is called "The F-Holes"

 

[Moe Monsarrat]

That figures.....there's nothing original left. I guess you could take it a step further....The F Stops (Here) ....F.U.....F.ME....F. Everyone. But that's OT.

Yes, but you have to age it for a really long time for decent sustain. Makes the bass smell awesome too.

Another non-bass entry, but I always thought the f-holes on the Yamaha Troy Van Leuwen signature guitar were pretty righteous...
