SHOW YOUR KOA TOPS!!!

[Mittnick]

My 2007 Fodera Monarch...

The top of a Rob Allen MB-2 that is being built for me...

Damn, let there be BASS! Awesome! It's also one of Wooten favourites to play

Koa is one of the most beautiful looking woods in existence, methinks.

I have a uke made of koa, no basses though.

 

[tombowlus]

Ibanez ATK Koa Top

Oh, yeah! I forgot I have one of those, too!

I suppose that is one of the sure signs that you have way too much crap, eh?

 

[Willem]

If you're gonna call it crap, just give it to me!

Here's my Warwick '04 Ltd. with a flamed Koa top.

LOL! I use the word 'crap' in nothing but the most affectionate way possible.

American Schecter (1983) and Carvin LB75 Fretless (1992)
Both soild bodies and the Carvin is complete koa.

 

[BIGBEE]

sorry about the other 2 basses in the pic, the two on the bottom are koa all carvins.

Those are both very slick!

 

[Gabriel51]

Those are both very slick!

Thanks, those bases have lots of hours on them.

 

[tombowlus]

Thanks, those bases have lots of hours on them.

And I bet those are hours very well spent!

I'll take some of that "crap" off your hands if you're to worried about it taking up space!

 

[slyjoe]

I assume solid koa is OK? Warmoth hollowed solid koa body.

I wish I could take good pictures of basses

 

[Psychicpet]

I am officially beyond insanely jealous of you Andrew.

GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!

Here is my AJ contrabass guitar with koa top and pickup covers from Aero.

 

[Pedulla?]

[BIG CHEETO]

Dude whats up with the way you strung that?

[elgecko]

A Peavey from the early 90's.
Koa body & neck.

Hey! I have one of those too!

 

[Psychicpet]

HAHAHA!!!!! Thats the most ******** thing ive seen all year!!!! haha, looks like some kid got a hold of it and really wanted to raise some hell!

The extended B really does make a big difference in the playability/timbre of the B all the way up the neck.

 

[Bongolation]

Ornamental exotic tops are too bass-geek for me personally, but I got Link Removedcheap. It's pretty if you like that sort of thing. [shrug]

Nice koa, but that stuff belongs on furniture as far as I'm concerned.
