stewblack Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Bought this lovely little bass here a very long time ago. It was picked up for me by the BL from one of my bands as he was in the neighborhood of the seller. Then we had all sorts of issues in the band and I didn't see them for months. Well last night we finally reconvened to play a wedding and I got to see and use the dub king. It's a kind of Celtic influenced set with acoustic guitar, whistle and mandolin, and I've been searching for the right sounding and looking instrument for a while now. This is it. An absolutely amazing bass. Tight to play being so small but oh! The sound! I've never known a bass so articulate. Every nuance of every note was clear to hear in the mêlée. It has an acoustic element to its sound, helped by the flats. The pick ups are very different from one another but blend beautifully, and the tone as expansive as any I've played. And it's beautiful. 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted August 29, 2022 Share Posted August 29, 2022 Smashing! Short scales do seem to be very authoritative in a mix (more fundamental, less harmonics) and they take pitch based FX brilliantly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This one is the best yet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
