New WIDE 6-string bass!

[bassix]

This is my new Wyn 6-string! '62-P spacing at the bridge AND nut! (And,,no; I don't care if you think it's too big!) :-D

That's sick! I'm a fan of the widest flattest necks conceivable.

I think you're missing a pic there, but congrats

Yeah. I am missing the main pic, but I'm not too savy on how to post decent pics here on TB. From my perspective, it's not too user friendly, but I'll keep trying to figure out how get it done!

Congrats! Looks like a gorgeous instrument.

I've never been a huge fan of wide-flat necks, and I especially don't like Jazz V necks. And never having owned a P-bass before, but having recently modded up a PJ 5er, I suddenly have a new appreciation for the P-bass neck! And I can see how a P-bass spaced 6er would be the ONE! Nice!

I've had the oppotunity to play this bass, and I was blown away to say the least. The neck dimensions were too big for me, but they are just what Bassix wanted. Great playability and great sound!

I hate you, so much. A Wyn is my dream bass, although I'd go the exact opposite route and get narrow spacing. I love the wood combo you got going on, is the top/back Ziricote? Makes for a very visually balanced and appealing bass.

Thanks for posting this Dan,, and many thanks for taking these pics for me! Premier Bass, by the way is a spankin' new all bass boutique shop located in the foothills of Colorado! Check 'em out! Amazing selection and you couldn't work with a nicer bunch of folks.

As I'm sure you know, it's a constant search to find spacing that is comfortably wide. To that end,, most of my main basses are modded Squire Precision Special 5's due to their 19mm spacing and 2" nut. However, I finally just wanted a high quality bass with that kind of spacing. Interestingly,, after I've played this bass for a while, my Squire's feel skinny! BTW,, I love the wide neck,, but purposely asked for some radius to the fretboard; so its 9 1/2" to 12" compound per Randy at Wyn. Honestly,, on a neck this wide, the radius is barely perceivable. Still feels flat.

Yes. I wanted as black a bass as I could get, so Randy did the top and back in Zircote heartwood. African mahogany core and flame maple tone layer just underneath the Zircote! I think it's very striking.

Wyn makes some of the best basses on the planet! I've played Anthony Wellington's 7 and the neck is amazingly easy to play. It's in Pete Skjold category as far as easy necks.

I'm not too proud to admit that I just messed my pants.

SWEET!

 

[mikezimmerman]

Beautiful! That neck looks a little too narrow, though... (My Curbow 6 is actually wider than that!)

Love those Wyn basses!
