Lo. Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0dRWnJIzgc4&lc=SlXxewHdwmJvwm0-qacFnmZkmaLGNWJQ0x2OJOXjmKY&feature=inbox"]Cheetah ABG[/url] I recommendz 'em. I'd ask them for an endorsement but it would cost me more in phone calls than buying another. £50, new. A pain in the ass to tape the neck up to finish the frets, but worth it. The preamp is (obviously) cheap, so I smooth it out with the Phil Jones Bass Buddy preamp and happy days ensue. Hope it doesn't fall apart when I put heavier gauge flats on it - the fender tapewounds are OK but the rotosound tapewounds or normal flats would be better for me I guess.

stingrayPete1977 Posted June 22, 2011 Share Posted June 22, 2011 I love my acoustic bass at the moment, I dont think many people realise just how nice and honky they can be mede to sound with the right technique. Great for home practice/noodling/reading & scales etc and for £50! awesome Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not trying to have a go but that doesn't sound very good Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lo. Posted June 23, 2011 Author Share Posted June 23, 2011 Heh - thanks, but I'll go with the majority on this. It's a great bass, with or without the toys. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
