leftyhook Posted March 5, 2012 Share Posted March 5, 2012 [quote name='discreet' timestamp='1330820547' post='1563544'] It would have to be a 51-type pup cover, but it wouldn't fit over the 57-type split pickup! Also, I can't have a bridge cover as I'm a palm-muting fan! Nice thought, though... [/quote] I tried a bass with a pickup cover and bridge cover. Couldn't play the thing. Looks nice, but I like to change my hand into different positions for different sons. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DavidCertain Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I'm wondering why not one person has commented on the counterfeit Fender decal. This is very unethical, plus, why can't the guy put his own name on the bass he made? It's like putting a Opal logo on a Mercedes. Sure, most of us could tell it's not really a Fender, but after it changes hands a couple of times, someone is going to get taken. It's not only extremely unethical to make or own such a bass, it's highly illegal. I certainly wouldn't be bragging about it in an internet bass forum. I'm just wondering what's the purpose of using counterfeit Fender decals? Anyone want to explain why someone would be proud of this when they should be ashamed?

Dave Vader Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Because this is not Talkbass and we don't judge people for their choices. Have a nice day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eude Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Plus, it's technically an "Allparts Fender-Licensed" neck, so it may have even shipped with the decal on it for all we know... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jackers Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 I have two things to say about this bass: 1. Phwooarrrrrrrr! 2. Do you accept kidneys as a form of currency? hehe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkpegasus4001 Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 That's a nice looking bass Mark. Just out of curiosity, is it heavy? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I can tell using the most modern scientific methods (weighing myself with and without the bass on bathroom scales ) it's in the order of 8.5lbs, which I believe to be relatively light for a P-Bass.

Gust0o Posted March 20, 2012 Share Posted March 20, 2012 Christ, well done Howard / Bass Doc - this is stunning, really, really stunning. There aren't many basses I really look at and thing "that is something else", but this is definitely one to get the reaction. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
