BigBassBob Posted December 15, 2011 Share Posted December 15, 2011 Here's my current flock: [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v155/BigBassBob/Snapbucket/514240BE.jpg[/IMG] [IMG]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v155/BigBassBob/Snapbucket/97D53B5D.jpg[/IMG] Fender MIJ 62 Pbass body loaded with Nordstrand PJs and Status neck (the body came from my first ever bass.) Strung with DR Sunbeams (40-100.) Just picked this up from my local tech today and I'm rather impressed.

Clarky Posted December 17, 2011 Share Posted December 17, 2011 The stacked pot modification on the Hoppus is really neat. Like that bass a lot. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Alex Spencer Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I've got the Hoppus in Daphne Blue. Nice mods you've got on it. I love the simplistic aesthetic of the Hoppus. Lovely collection, I am in envy! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Truckstop Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 I've always secretly been after a Hoppus, but I've only ever seen one in Salmon Pink (the one colour I'm interested in) and that was like £600 s/h! I passed on it. Lovely collection too, great selection of tones for any situation! Truckstop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MarkG3 Posted March 7, 2012 Share Posted March 7, 2012 Very nice mate I do like the colour of the Hoppus bass! Just a question what's the benefits of the pup on the Hoppus being reversed? Is it to beef the D and G up? Also is the stacked knobs your own upgrade or is this another change Fender made to the Hoppus bass? +1 for the bed sheets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cocco Posted March 8, 2012 Share Posted March 8, 2012 Can I have the hoppus? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
