[Curtis Rielley]

Just to see the look on every guitar player's face at a Blues Jam would be worth it alone...........

Because everyone knows the only real bass is a sunburst P with a tort guard and flats.

Right?

 

[MDBass]

A little late, but NBD! This thing is not only fun but plays amazing, and is just gorgeous!

Oscar is something of a magician, what an incredible piece of craftsmanship.

Congrats!

Quit pull out the discussion ending arguments!! You know none of us can contest that!

I wouldn't know how to begin tuning it, let alone play it... but it's a beautiful instrument!

 

[Curtis Rielley]

"Arm Mute!"

Nice bass. I bet you terrify rhythm guitarists!

Like others, I want to see/hear it in action.

With such low frequencies, what sort of rig do you play through? Can those lows be heard, or just "felt"?

Congratulations on a great looking instrument. Kudos to the builder.

Thanks man!!! The rig im running through is an ampeg b2re over a markbass 4x10 on an Accugroove 21" subwoofer. My C#0 regardless is technically inaudible, but it pushes the air and replicates the note. You can definitely feel it!

What does a typical set of 11 strings cost?

 

[ImNotJoel]

No. This is a NBD thread.

The thread for trolls is three forums down, turn left just past miscellaneous, first door on the right it says "off topic". Better hurry, I think I saw the group leader bringing in a fresh box of cheese and carrots. That's not going to last long. Enjoy your session!

I hear there's Nobody to be found. Better run!

Awesome and interesting to listen to someone who can really play one. But WAY over my head.

Nope just my new bass

 

[Hounddog409]

Hope you enjoy it, for me it is at least 6 strings too many and I'm from Québec where Le Cirque du Soleil was born... But it looks very nice.

Yep.

I hardly play the G string as it is. To damn twangy for a bass, so that is a waste of at least five in my mind.

Well im sorry you think its a waste.

 

[Hounddog409]

Well im sorry you think its a waste.

Just the strings....nice looking instrument, Just too many skinny strings.

Oh ok I got you. Well thanks man Yeah its not everyones cup of tea and I was the same way a few years back where I had a 6 and never used the high C. But then I started tapping and etc so having the highs became pretty useful
