Edited for clarity: I'm taking a break from music. Please don't offer trades unless your offer leaves me better off (in the economics sense) than taking cash would. I do not need more basses, I'm selling my music gear. Let's reflect this preference by assigning a trade value of 1500 pounds on the bass. Yes, that is intentionally double the cash price.

Edit: so, here's an audio clip. [media]https://www.dropbox.com/s/krlx6cj3ajz1dh9/overwater5.mp3[/media]

Bump for rock tones.

I'm mostly trying to demonstrate that this bass has powerful controls. Someone was kind of interested and then said that Overwaters do not have enough range in the bass boost/cut. Well, there's a bit in the audio clip where I go from 0 to +max and then 0 to -max. No account for taste, but I've very seldom heard pres with more powerful bass controls.

Bought this from Tayste earlier this year. Very fine fiver, but trying to cut down and I NEED sixers. I don't need a five.

Very slim and playable neck, great ergonomics all round.
Walnut body, maple top, maple neck rosewood (? I'll check) board.

36" gives this bass an excellent B string, one of the VERY few B's that are just as slappable as you'd expect a good 4-stringer's E to be. Also, walnut body. This bass has a very weighty and authoritative tone. Full and punchy at the same time. No mud. Versatile. (Hey, Overwater electronics!)


Here's a link to Tayste's FS ad over at another forum with additional info and pics.

Hi mates, it's a cloudy day here, so not good for photography.

The first part is is pick riff, with changes in eq and pickups. I did not go for extreme + mids, because .. I dunno. I'm not a rock bassist I guess.
Then there are a couple of riffs with pick or fingerstyle or both. I did not explore the 'ice pick' tones at all.
