Pointy Basses!!!

[FL Knifemaker]

Haven't seen this one discussed in a while!!

Lets see them and tell us why you love them.

Pointy Bass haters, keep your comments to yourself, we already know they can put an eye out, are unbalanced, and stuck in the 80's BLAH BLAH BLAH......

My Hammer Scarab is an awesome player. I always wanted one back in the day but couldn't afford one. I guess I'm making up for lost time or something It balances just fine, especially with my elbow resting on the top wing. Since these pics, I've installed a set of Dimarzios and it really roars!! It's my "go to" play with a pick 4 string for accompanying my Son's Punk and Speedmetal Geetaring

It's getting a set of Delano pickups and a 3 band pre and a mahogany brown stain.

Warmoth koa body, Duncan stacked pickups, Duncan 3-band pre, natural finish. I had this one up for sale but saw (or heard) the light. It sounds way too good to part with.

You sit down to play it, and it becomes quite erganomic. It puts both hands in the proper position. And the sound is awesome.
