    No idea how you missed it, it’s not like you’ve been busy fettling your own bass builds is it 🙄😜😃

    Well the pickups ended up being delayed again from Bass Direct so they’ve kindly refunded me and I’ve found some in Holland which are on their way over. Meanwhile Mike and I have sorted the scratch plate design and Mike’s started on the neck and fingerboard:

    Very nice! I almost snapped up those cabs a few weeks ago when Andy was selling me his Ashdown LB30, luckily for you (and for my wallet and marriage!) I didn’t Great little rig, love it

    Quite an amusing story but for the losses the venues have no doubt made!

    Glorious!

    Oh my days 😍

    Yup it’s not bad at all, reminds me of a cross between ash and alder. I’m sure someone with more knowledge will give me a better comparison!

    @Cosmicrain is flying through this - more progress shots! Body contoured and edges rolled, rear cavity finished off and the neck screw holes are done. The basic neck blank is cut and now we await the pickups to do the routing for them

    You may have gathered my phone is helpfully posting the images in reverse order.....

    More pics! Mike said he needs the Nordstrand pickups in the next fortnight or so, so I’ve chased Bass Direct (I did a big order because of two other projects I’ll show off next year!) - here’s hoping they get them soon...

    Chris, I’ll look after all the ones you decide you don’t need 😎

    Some pictures of wood! Basically it’s just the body blank being stuck together and one pic shows the template with the pickup positions too. Mike has done all the internal work on this as well now so all the wiring cavities and control cavity are carved

    Pure class, this. Lovely bass
  16. Merton
    Nice!

    The One10s sound anything but thin, in my experience

    Nice article! I remember the first Big One being loaded into the boot of my Ford Focus, delivered by Alex on an excursion from his day job at the time. Apart from a dalliance away with Ashdown when I needed some cash I’ve been a BF user since 2010 and absolutely love their Super Compact and One10 cabs. Happy birthday Barefaced

    Agreed, Ashdown got this range spot on IMO

    Gorgeous bass Ralph

    See There aren’t too many spoilers in there but I can tell you that the Live Aid bit is awesome 😎

    Looks like a direct competitor to the Trace Elliot Elf & 2x8 cab doesn’t it!

    It’ll kick donkey with the BB2, just be aware that you may need to adjust the tweeter to suit. I run an ABM EVO through a Super Compact and it is glorious and creamy and phat.
  24. Merton
    PS, this is a bloody lovely bass, very very nice and elegant
  25. Merton
    Agreed! It set me on a path with Alan too, I currently own two but did have a third, and I have a stupendously awesome Finn spec in my head for early next year too 😎
