BassBalls Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 (edited) I have had this about 6 months now and its time to put some pics up. [attachment=4347:DSCF0028.JPG] [attachment=4348:DSCF0034.JPG] [attachment=4349:DSCF0033.JPG] Im not sure of its exact age im guessing around 1991? It has the original foam blocks at the bridge and six neck bolts. The neck is gorgeous with lots of character. Lovely sounding bass too, its now my number one choice.

silverfoxnik Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Lovely bit of wood and, IMHO, the classic SR4 look! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will tell you the exact birthday of the bass from the serial number. Jim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul, the Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 (edited) This is probably the bass I most want but can't afford right now. Beautiful, what are you playing it through? Edited December 27, 2007 by paul, the Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joegarcia Posted December 27, 2007 Share Posted December 27, 2007 Thats not a laquered neck is it? I didn't realise any of the necks after EB took over were lacquered. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BassBalls Posted December 27, 2007 Author Share Posted December 27, 2007 All i currently have to play it through is my Ampeg SVT Pro 4 head. Need to get a 2x12 or 4x12 cab to play it all through. With my old rig this bass sounded amazing, it sounds so big and imposing. Im pretty sure the neck is lacquered, it feels smooth not grainy.

I think the oil finished neck came in quite a bit later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dub_junkie Posted December 28, 2007 Share Posted December 28, 2007 The EVH guitar was the first MM with the oil finished neck in 1991.the others switched over sometime in '93 I believe nice bass! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have not felt its full force yet! Does anyone know how much the bass is worth? Im defiantly not going to sell it, its a keeper and i enjoy playing it but i would like to get it properly insured.

paul, the Posted December 29, 2007 Share Posted December 29, 2007 I know, selective quoting Foam at the bridge: awesome. That bass has a great vintage vibe. bump for value. ??? - I think due to the sheer amount of them; the appealing looks of yours will bump up the value considerably.
