Piezo Threesome

[richnota]

Finally got all three of my piezo basses together in one place. Thought I'd produce a little bit of fretless porn.

Rob Allen Deep 5 in Koa
Rick Turner Renaissance 4 in sycamore
Rick Turner Renaissance 8 in flamed myrtle

surprising less than their appearance would suggest...but more than I want to think about (the whole bunch cost less than a fancy Fodera).

That Rob Allen 5 is SEXAY!

 

[ras1983]

Where are they? i can't see the- oh. there they are, they look exactly like your floorboards.

that is, they are shiny, classy, and very sophisticated.

how do they sound?

 

[Alistair R]

Amazing basses. I'm in love with the middle one.

 

[vyse933]

love the F hole

 

[Lokire]

Wow

I'll say it again:

Wow

 

[Jeff Moote]

Can't say the Turner's are my taste, but that's quite the trio and a beautiful Deep 5

 

[rob_the_bassist]

i want one =[

 

[SoComSurfing]

That sycamore is just sick! It almost looks like Lacewood, IMO, with the colorations and pattern. All three are stunning. Very nice.

 

[Chunk-O-Funk]

That is quite the collection!

I have never seen sycamore, very nice.



What's your thoughts on a comparison? I know they're all different in string configurations, just in general. Any preference?

 

[jdlwareagle]

OMG ... stunning !

The Deep 5 is my favorite...perfect balance of sweet and growl (but from your signature picture you probably know that: is that a blonde Deep 5?).

I've recently switched the Turner 4 from thomastik acousticore to labella black tapes--Im really enjoying its tone. I find the Turner records very well.

The fretless 8 is a bit over the top for straight forward performance...best used sparingly.
