Josh Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 (edited) Hey Guys, I picked this up recently after having a noodle in a Bristol music shop and was really impressed, but I need to get some money back to start to save for a EUB for my lessons. So as such this is virtually new, there is one little knick on the back of the body but it's nothing serious at all and honestly I don't even know how it got there, but nonetheless it's practically new.

Jigster Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 how do these sound compared to the usual jazz honk etc + what's it's actual colour, looks both brown and black Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Josh Posted November 6, 2011 Author Share Posted November 6, 2011 It sounds very powerful, it takes some taming but it does sound huge and the slap tone is almost like an active jazz. The colour is a transulcent black finish but you can see the grain, that's probably what gives that brown kind of tone to the black. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josh Posted November 7, 2011 Author Share Posted November 7, 2011 I think £350 is a fair price for this. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I'm sorry man I didn't mean it like that, I meant it's just a rushed live recording, whereas if it was recorded properly it could've sounded much better. Although the slap tone is pretty accurate, very MM esque and full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
