  1. God damn i wish they made lefty version of these. The only "headless" bass i truly love.
  2. Only one for me too. A MM Stingray 5 fretless. black finish and one of the best birdseye maple necks i have ever seen.
  3. For what its worth i have a Sansamp PDDI and i love the damn thing. Its the only pedal i use now. I cant recommend it enough.
  4. I know the assistant manager from the Maze pretty well. I could have a word.
  5. The tuning makes sense its everything down a step then the lowest string dropped another step like Drop D but all strings down another step I tune like this sometimes but with my B string tuned to G.
  6. I would hazzard a guess of the preamp below the axeFX being a Sansamp RBI but it really is a guess.
  7. If he is playing through the head to the right of him in the picture its a fractual audio Axe FX. Thats the thing in the middle with all the buttons.
  8. Cant remember last time i did a list so: All Left Handed Owned Ibanez GSR 200 - Now defretted Awful right handed precision copy - Now defretted and silver with mirror ball pieces glued on Alembic Epic 4 string - Amazing bass. First good quality bass. Fretted Jazz copy - Was Gold Now natural with a badass 2 and Seymour Duncan pickups. Wish i had left it gold. to be refinished white. Fretless Jazz copy - Currently in the process of refinishing black Musicman Stingray Copy - In bits. Schecter Studio 6 - now defretted Warwick fortress MasterMan 5 - Amazing bass for death metal. Aria Magna 4 - Bought on a whim for £50. i don't need it ACG Recurve SC 6 - Unbelievable bass inspired me to get another ACG. Faultless H and K 7 String fretted. - First try at an ERB above 6. Not bad. Needs a new preamp. looks nice but is heavy. Owned in the past: Rick Turner Electroline 5 string fretless - Bit too Jazzy sounding for me. Could cop a good upright tone with the piezo. don't regret moving on. Traded it for Warwick fortress and a warwick amp Musicman 5 string fretless. Bought for a great price. Wonderful bass in brand new condition amazing Birds eye maple neck. - Really regret letting that go. Musicman Stringray in Teal - Traded for the Corvette as i was sick of the neck dive from my Schecter - don't regret moving on Warwick Corvette 6 String - loved this bass changed the hardware from chrome to black. Traded for ACG 6. Do not regret. Incoming ACG 7 String Fretted ' Only bass i regret letting go was the MM fretless 5 as it was such a nice bass but if i hadn't let it go i would not of got my 4 string MM which means i wouldn't of got my Corvette which means i wouldn't of got my ACG so i am overall happy with my choices. More than i thought. Oh dear.
  9. [quote name='pantherairsoft' post='1351987' date='Aug 26 2011, 08:21 AM']Sounds good! Though we'll not have much luck trying each others out (you lefty freak! )[/quote] Oh yeah didnt think that through.
  10. Looking good. Love the Salace shape and i am a big fan of Holly. I cant get on with headless basses though.
  11. Looking good Shep. We need to have a six string bass bash
  12. [quote name='AttitudeCastle' post='1346839' date='Aug 21 2011, 12:13 AM']It's going to be beautiful when it's done mate! That fretboard is something else![/quote] Cheers Dude. I am pretty taken with it myself.
  13. [quote name='EdwardHimself' post='1346636' date='Aug 20 2011, 07:30 PM']Beast is the right word.[/quote] Where Strides the BEHEMOTH!!!!!
  14. Update from Alan. The beast is taking shape!!!! I love that fingerboard.
  15. I have a Fortress Masterman and i would not dream of changing anything on it. It is the perfect bass for cutting through metal guitars, especially when using a death metal "clacking" sound like Blood Red Throne. However if the pickup upgrade works for you then great. I find the fortress one of the best balancing and comfortable basses to play.
  16. Is the fingerboard asymetrical? I.e i mean flat under the E string?
  17. Probably not much help but i know a guitarist with ADHD and he is brilliant so it can be done. I know everyone is different just trying to be positive.
  18. This post cannot be displayed because it is in a forum which requires at least 1 post to view.
  19. I am not up with the whole John Enwhitle bass history but isnt that Dean just a copy of an Alembic?
  20. If anyone is looking for a ticket for the Manchester gig on Tuesday get in touch with Paul 5. There is a thread in the for sale section. I said to Paul i would buy it but i have been let down with a lift so if anyone is after one give Paul a shout. If not i will still pay for it.
  21. I was the person this was sold to but it dosnt look like i can go either now after being let down for a lift back. So if someone else wants it PM Paul and let him know. If not i will still pay for it because i said i would and i feel like a cock for messing Paul about.
  22. I just checked the Almbic website. Go into the forum and join there is a serial number identification thread. [url="http://alembic.com/club/messages/394/22072.html?1310202882"]http://alembic.com/club/messages/394/22072.html?1310202882[/url]
  23. Send Alembic an email with the serial number and they will get back to you with the info. Looks ligit. It was made in 1995 and the W indicates its an Epic. Hard to tell from the pic but looks like a Walnut or Bubinga top and standard spec. The Epics are great basses and you wont be dissapointed. if you want to know anything just ask. I have an Epic and im a bit of a fan boy.
