Show your Overwaters...Please!!!!!

[BadBass]

The Overwater Appreciation Thread...sorry, I copied this idea off bassworld

I dont know if there are many Overwaters out there in the States, but I think theyre fantastic instruments and there should be more of them. So..please post all pics and specs of your Overwaters you lucky people!!

I am hopefully getting a 6er built soon so I will be able to post a pic!!


Thankyou all!!


All the Best,

Matt Denney

[BadBass]

Yes they are indeed. Atlas Works, Nelson Road, Carlisle.

Its just a small 2 storey building in an industrial estate, go up the small set of stairs and you are instantly in Heaven...the showroom

Above are a few pics.from recently acquired Overwater Prestige. Many great features including mahogany body, ebony top and back, 24 frets and neck through construction. A beautiful instrument which sounds as good as it looks!

My pair of Overwaters

Spectacular basses IMHO

 

[lowendblues]

Didn't they make something called an Overwater "C" bass somewhere around the 1980's?

Is it just me? Or would a collaboration project between Overwater and MTD be the stuff of dreams?

If I had the scratch, I would totally get that translucent charcoal bolt-on 5-string in their "store" page... Looks absolutely bad@s$!

I just purchased the SDS off of the Overwater site a couple of weeks ago and haven't taken any photos of it yet, so I stole their picture off the site before they shipped it! I was also lucky enough to find another Overwater from a Buddy that was located here in my area of Louisiana in the United States! It's actually the SDJ that's shown on the site as an example. It's the black transparent one with the gold pickguard/scratchplate, ebony fretboard and no fret markers on the face. They are both getting worn out this week by me woodshedding to get totally used to the spacing. I've been playing Bass since I was a kid back in 1966. In the years since, I've been lucky enough to Tour and/or share Stages and Studios with Outstanding Musicians around the World. I've literally played Hundreds and Hundreds of Basses throughout the years. These Overwaters with the 33" scale and 16.5" spacing are Freaking AWESOME!!! In fact, I Love Them SO Much, that I'm going to get an SDS lite 4 built as soon as Chris, Kirsty and the Guys are back after the Holidays!!! Therefore, Can I join the Club and get a number? I'm "Over the Moon" about my Overwaters!!!!! Thanks-Bill Godley

Here's another picture of the SDJ and also another screen capture of the SDS from Chris' site before they removed it after the sale to me......
