The Burpster Posted December 4, 2008 Share Posted December 4, 2008 I've been listening to Dire Straits quite a bit of late and wondered if any of you own or have tried a resonator bass? I know Ozark made them for a while and I have no idea what they were like..... I have this sad romantic notion that one would sound pretty good trough a valve amp.....

Ajoten Posted December 5, 2008 Share Posted December 5, 2008 (edited) I used to have the Ozark and it was ACE. [url="http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=viewImage&friendID=73643361&albumID=73079&imageID=1054447"]http://viewmorepics.myspace.com/index.cfm?...imageID=1054447[/url] Not me playing it. Played really nicely, short scale but didn't feel it, small for an acoustic bass but obviously a tad heavy... I never played it standing up actually. Went clang in correct reso stylee, less so when DIed and using the lipstick pickup (I have a clip I'll post somewhere later*). I bought it as it was reputedly the loudest acoustic available, in the hope of playing unelectricly with people from time to time, but it still didn't cut it really. I reviewed it [url="http://reviews.harmony-central.com/reviews/Electric+Bass/product/Ozark/Resonator+Bass/10/1"]on Harmony Central[/url]. *AAAAAARGH again myspace proves itself unfknusable as I fail to find how to upload songs. If you really want to hear my old reso, I'll e a piece. Edited December 5, 2008 by Ajoten Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
