thebeat Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 (edited) Bought this for me barfday on Thursday...sort of self commiseration present Lovely sounds can be had from this one...not sure if the F hole is serving any function other than lightening up the bass though. Neck is oiled maple and very nice to play...somewhere between a jazz and p in shape. Apparently this bass is very good for slap but as i don't slap unless provoked i really couldn'y say....very growly when favouring the bridge pup, but also has plenty of deep lows...liking it a lot...though it remains to be seen if it stays Edited March 10, 2009 by thebeat Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BigRedX Posted March 10, 2009 Share Posted March 10, 2009 Mmmm, like the look of that! Playing-wise I'm not sure whether I could deal with the heel and single cut, but I do like the look. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

steve Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 cool, I'm quite taken by the fretboard markers and the rail pickups Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 Oh, I do like that a lot! One of the best-looking singlecuts I've seen. :brow: Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted March 11, 2009 Share Posted March 11, 2009 (edited) Just had a look at the Hagstrom web site and that particular model doesn't appear to be available in that finish. Custom order? BTW anyone know where these basses are being made? Edited March 11, 2009 by BigRedX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As for the finish it's Tobacco Burst and the only other one i've seen in this finish had a humbucker at the bridge and a jazz style pup at the neck...not sure what the score with this one is.
