    Now you're really not helping my GAS at all bud!
    That things lighter than my Aguilar GS112 too, but not on the wallet...

    [quote name='bass_ferret' post='204499' date='May 22 2008, 07:12 PM']You mean just like a Dr Bass 1260? [url="http://www.drbasscabs.com/"]http://www.drbasscabs.com/[/url][/quote]

    Wow, yup, just like that, at least in principle.
    Although, I had envisaged something a bit more upright, as I'd be using it as a standalone cab, kinda like the Hartke 2200, but much much more compact...

    Hey man,
    is the black headstocked neck still around?
    If so, can you wait till payday (the 28th) or would you consider swapping for an unused maple/maple P Bass neck bought from Dangleberry music a wee while ago, think it cost £55 but i'd happily do a straight swap.
    If you'd rather have cash and can wait till the 28th, that's cool too though.

    By the way, is your neck a P bass or J Bass profile?
    Doesn't bother me either way though, as it's going on to a bit of a Jazz Bass rebuild to use as a beater bass :)

    [quote name='Raggy' post='204340' date='May 22 2008, 03:02 PM']Mike will make pretty much anything you want from what he told me.[/quote]

    Anything at all?
    I'd love a 4 ohm 3 way cab, with a 12 inch woofer, 8 or 6 inch mid cone and a tweeter all in a compact, hopefully one hand lift.
    Maybe in some nice camo or dark green tolex too, hmm...

    Does anyone have Mike's email address?

    Tiny update.
    The body is all shaped and being basecoated, should get a picture at le weekend.
    It'll be all black and shiny next week, hopefully.
    Then on to the neck!

    Pics as soon as I get 'em :)

    Getting excited and everything seems to be on schedule too, 'spose it's a pretty simple build compared to some of the more boutique basses coming out of Jon's work shop at the moment :huh:

    Nice one 7 String!
    This is going to be a beast of a bass and I know Alan will really get it right too!

    Does this mean you'll be going for a change of username? :)

    Hey bud,
    I really like the idea of the clear scratchplate, as you say it'd tie in with the origins of the design.
    I certinaly wouldn't go for any other material though, it'd be a real shame to hide that beautiful wood :)

    Picking up as early as Monday? That's awesome news...

    Hey Mart,
    I got a LittleMark 250 and an Aguilar GS112 last year, replacing my old Trace Elliot 1X15 Combo >>
    [url="http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=5152"]http://basschat.co.uk/index.php?showtopic=5152[/url]

    It came in about £600 by the way.
    I couldn't be happier with it!

    I intend to add another Aguilar cab when I can afford it, probably the GS112NT one, but for small venues unaccompanied or for monitoring on larger stages it's absolutely amazing!
    What's even better, is I can get the head in a laptop bag on one shoulder, my bass on my back and the cab in one hand!

    I thoroughly recommend it as it sounds like your requirements are similar to my own.

    I'd also check out the GenzBenz Shuttle head and cab combos too over at www.bassdirect.co.uk - they look very interesting too.

    Cheers,
    Eude

    [quote name='Bassmonster' post='187825' date='Apr 29 2008, 09:45 AM']liked your idea for the modified body shape by the way, that could be how my next one looks...although thats a bit down the line.[/quote]

    Cheers bud, I'm really quite pleased with it.
    I've passed it on to Jon and he really likes it too.
    I was thinking that I'd use it for a simple passive back up 6 string, but I really want a fretless 6 too, so that'll probably take precedent and I'll use that shape, and just the one pickup too, nice and simple :huh:
    Probably have to wait till bonus time though, next year :)

    WOW!
    The body is gorgeous and the neck looks good enough to eat.
    You got and ETA yet?

    Still no news on mine yet :) but I'm leaving Jon be, as I know he's silly busy, plus when it does come along, it'll be a nice surprise.

    [quote name='OldGit' post='183527' date='Apr 23 2008, 09:29 AM']Just wondered if there are any regularly used single cuts in rock and roll?
    I don't think I've ever seen one on the telly and it does seem to be a Jazz /ERB / soloist body style ..[/quote]

    I think you're right Si.
    Up until recently, Single Cuts, or at least the modern boutique variety have been solely reserved for that kind of player, probably more to do with price than anything though.
    There are of course the older kind, some of of those lovely 70s Les Paul basses for instance, now they've been used and abused in rock music for decades.



    Probably the original single cut bass, probably wrong though...
    Nice :)

    [quote name='presoulnation' post='183063' date='Apr 22 2008, 06:52 PM']Now that does look pretty awesome!

    Hmmmm.....I see a little chat with Jon coming on friday.......not quite sure exactly what I want to go for, and I also see nothing wrong with the shape of his basses, I just fancy something just that little bit individual :)[/quote]

    Nice one, with the single Pickup it reminded me of 7string's Sei actually, which is incredibly drool-worthy.
    I'm pretty certain that's what's next on the list for me though, once I get my hands on my Shuker Pub Bass that is :huh:

    Keep us posted on what you decide, if you want a hand roughing a shape out, I don't mind helping out using Illustrator, although if you want a proper mockup i do believe Sugden does some cracking renderings of basses, I think he's been doing all of Skelf's for AC Guitars of late, which look brilliant.

    Cheers,

    [quote name='presoulnation' post='179968' date='Apr 18 2008, 05:13 PM']Well I quite like the shape, although I am toying with the idea of tweaking a bit, the one shape of bass which totally gets me is the Sei Original. There used to be a black and white pic of James Leach from Sikth up on myspace and it is just the ultimate bass shot for me, I'd link you but its been taken down. So if I am to tweak the shape, then it will be something like that.[/quote]

    I know the Sei Bass you mean, the one with the cut out on the body as if it was headless, but it's still a headed instrument, very nice.
    I love Sei basses, always have, been down to the Gallery a couple of times when I've been in London just to drool....

    Don't get me wrong though, I really like the standard shape Jon's doing now.
    I'm talking to him at the moment about a simple passive bolt-on 6 string as a backup to me single cut and I got messing about with the shape.
    I tweaked it by 10 degrees and I think it looks awesome, so I reckon that'll be the shape of my next baby!

    What do you reckon?

    I'm going to be selling some bass bits odds and sods, necks, body, bridge... this week in the hope of raising a bit of cash for one of those Jaguar style basses, a short-scale one though!
    I hope they don't sell out - the last batch of them with a plain fingerboard and white pickguard went in about 2 weeks :)
