Ooh NO!! Wishbass closing down?

[McHaven]

Wish can't make a bass sound very good, but this wishbass has surprisingly good tone

i am the proud owner of the bass in that last video. got it off ebay from the guy playing it in the video. great bass. its my first fretless. the only thing i'm not crazy about is the 12 fret neck/body joint, but the spanish heel seems stable as hell. great natural tone, exactly what i was looking for. never played a 29 1/2" scale before but i found it incredibly easy to play, and my prior bass was a 1980 rickenbacker 4001 (azure blue, for the nerds.)

wishbass, you either "get it" or you dont.

How much did he pay you to take it?

Well, well, well ... I own 3 Wishbasses (Lobe, Hyper, Banana) and have a Zebrawood Fantasy on order as I write. It's pretty simple really - these guitars invite you to tinker, improve, modify, customize, et al, and that's what I love about 'em. Really, how can you screw one up? (It's got a corian bridge; for crying out loud!) For people good with their hands and with a quirky sense of esthethics, these things are just the best thing! I am having a ball with mine. When I want to feel that silky, close tolerance affect on a bass, I pull out my Fender Aerodyne P-bass and appreciate it for a whole bunch of different reasons! Personally, I am going to miss Wish once he stops and I hope the value of these babies just goes up! Hey, even if they don't, they blow minds and are just so much fun. - 'nough said! 49sfine ...
