  1. As rmcki has said the bridge string spacing cannot be adjusted, it’s 18mm...however, you can adjust the string height and length as per a regular bridge! This is a fantastically well designed bridge too...very solid!!
  2. Still here for now...here are some answers to questions asked by interested parties for you all - the bass was built in 2016 and I am the only owner the bass is in show room condition...no marks or scratches no mods or repairs yes the neck is straight and yes the truss rod works fine the frets are in great condition the electrics work fine this is s custom hybrid, the bass is essentially an OW hybrid with 24 frets but without the angle on the headstock and designed to look like a more traditional Jazz bass. The sound is fairly growly...check out the YouTube video from the link above. the string width/spacing isn’t adjustable - 18mm the neck finish is gloss but that would be easily addressed if wished.
  3. More interest but no buyer...grab a superb practically new Overwater at half the price of a new build!!
  4. Post LBGS bump...anyone visiting the Overwater stand will know the quality of these amazing basses. Grab yourself a bargain and save the waiting time...make me a sensible offer!!
  5. I’ve had a few near misses but it’s still here for now...I’m open to sensible offers...!!

  9. Thanks Haimesy!! Serious buyers welcome to come and try it out in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire!!
  10. Up for sale is my amazing (and still very new) Overwater "Classic looking" Hybrid Jazz. This bass is beyond amazing in both sound and feel, and if I didn't already have a number one, this would be it!! Due to some major work needed at home, I have to let this one go!! Built in 2016 and delivered December 2016, this has a few modifications from the regular spec hybrid J that make it an amazing bass to play. In immaculate condition having only been on a few gigs and used in the studio for recording...it truly even still smells new!!! A bass at this spec would come in at £3500+ so this really is a great price for an instrument of this calibre...grab it while it's still here!! Price - £1700 (no trades) Spec - 5 String 34" scale (Fantastic B string) 18mm string width 46mm at the nut Maple 3 piece reinforced neck (No angle) Rosewood fingerboard 24 frets MOP Blocks and binding OW standard profiling Neck depth slim - around 22-23mm at 12th fret Swamp Ash body - Around 4kgs in weight East J-Retro preamp + Passive tone - silver knobs (Amazingly versatile) - rear battery compartment Bartolini 57CBJD L1/L2 pickups (Up-grade from the OW standard jazz pickups) Pickups in 60s jazz position - slightly back from the neck for "slap" access Edge mounted locking jack socket Bridge - OW 5 18mm chrome/silver Machine heads - Hipshot Ultra Lite - Chrome Scratchplate - Tortoiseshell Black gloss - solid finish (Nitro) Removable ramp Also with a Bass Centre case as no OW case bought with the bass.

  11. If this was 34" I'd snap it up in a heartbeat...cracking bass and great price. Good luck with the sale!!
  12. Thanks for the info Chris...sounds like you might just hang on to it anyway. I'll have a think but I'm already a '83 Squire Jazz over my limit at the moment 😉 Good luck whatever you decide to do. Tiernan
  13. That looks lovely. How does the neck depth compare to that of your other jazz fretless? What is the weight overall and how is the balance on a strap?
  14. That's almost the exact bass I'm looking for...shame it's not black with the Almico 5s!! Good luck with the sale 😄
  15. Has anyone tried a Peterson StroboStomp? - http://www.petersontuners.com/index.cfm?category=2 They look great but could they end up being too fiddly trying to get the various elements of the display to stop moving...?
  16. [quote name='stingrayPete1977' timestamp='1414687726' post='2592285'] That does tick the boxes doesn't it? Good spot, on my list it goes [/quote] No blocks though...That is one of the reasons I'm holding out to spec my own. Still blooming tempting though....
