steve-soar Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 here is my latest aquisition, thanks to Alan Can't say anything yet, feel free to comment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha-Dave Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 That really is stunning. I have to admit that I first thought that a 6'er might not look so great in the Recurve SC shape, but actually it's really well proportioned. I do particularly like the contour of the belly-carve, the 2 woods and the lines work really well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ped Posted August 29, 2007 Share Posted August 29, 2007 I think this bass shape looks really 'right' as a 6. Very cool indeed amigo ;0) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sugden Posted August 30, 2007 Share Posted August 30, 2007 That is a total gem. Alan has been seriously busy lately 3 totaly stunning basses rolling out and one more to come. I bet that sounds huge. The finish really has brought out that wood its something pretty special. That top is worth every penny. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-soar Posted August 30, 2007 Author Share Posted August 30, 2007 Thanks lads. Alan has been seriously busy, though I feel a little sad that the bass is finished, if you know what I mean. Watching it take shape has been great, there will be a review to follow. Paul, yours looks incredible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
