Show Your Carl Thompsons!

it pains me to say that the Hilton will likely be sold in the next few days in order to fulfill a bass-lifelong dream

What? You're letting the Hilton go already? I must be one heck of a bass dream you're fulfilling...! :eek:

Congrats on the new 5-string no frills, nonetheless...! I suspect it was worth the extended wait :p

I'll most likely send my deposit to Carl sometime next week :hyper:
 
For some reason people always used to mistake this for a Thompson.

it’s a bass I built in 2003 and used as my main bass up until a little over a year ago. I’m curious where do you get a case for a let’s say a 37" scale, does Carl include a case? I searched far and wide before I finally found a case for my extraordinarily long bass.
