[Gianni "Orlandez" Orlati]

A really nice solid body violin bass is about the only thing left that would tickle my GAS fancy. I have everything else. I tried to buy ibbc 's but he came to his senses at the last moment. &$!!%!!!! .

A 5-string would be my ultimate violin bass.

 

[Felken]

Might just be the perfect bass for metal...

 

[Liron_al]

Damn.. am I the only one who doesn't like it?
I mean I can see the craftsmanship involved and it looks great but I guess it's not my flavor

[Mosstone]

I like it!

But for eight grand, I'll have to like it from afar.

[Jim Dedrick]

Looks awesome. Hoe does it sound and play?

 

[TuneIn]

I've never heard of the guy until now, to answer your question...

 

[Boristhespyder]

On advice of my bank I must stop following this thread.

 

[madbass6]

I think this thing might be what I have always been looking for, minus a few details. Anyone heard of this guy?

Wrong!! Of course the ultimate violin bass would be Sr. Paul mc. Hofner Beatle Bass !

Just turn off the one you don't like.

Well by one I mean one in the middle not neck or bridge.

Also a pickup that is deactivated still exhibits magnetic pull and effects how a string vibrates.

I doubt one can hear the difference in a live setting, or on a record. In your bedroom with headphones... maybe.

People are STILL arguing about which bass McCartney played on a plethora of Beatles recordings. And I am referring to the ones that are Hofner vs. Ric vs. J-bass.

I, myself, have far more weighty concerns when I am playing.

Liking it from afar is far from liking it. Is liking not far unlike the unlikely not it is not unliken to? Being out 8k for a bass you like is like far out. Psych.

Good thing you're not looking a Double Bass!
