Hahaha! Maybe I should, but that'd take effort!

More pics as soon as I can, hopefully tomorrow, outdoors.

Ah, why not, one more!:cool:

SCHWEET! TWO HUMBUCKERS! :eek:

Lucky SOB!

Darkstrike · 11-02-2009 06:59PM

Two Bill Lawrence humbuckers!:D

Designed so that in single coil mode(with the three way series/parallel/single switches) they sound the same a vintage Jazz pickups, and are placed accordingly!:cool:

Nice!

That's gotta be very versatile. So, can you switch between the coils you use in tapped mode?

No, You have series, parallel, or the single coil in the correct Jazz position.

Its sweet, I can pull off P(passable), P/J, J/J, J/MM, MM, and a bunch of unique sounds.

Had it sent from the US, via family.

11 days it took UPS, once they had passed it on. If it was DHL would have took 4!:rolleyes:

Excellent choice, very nice bass there.

Beautiful guitar, should have no problem finding a sounds to suit any situation with so many tonal options available to you. Been lusting after one of these or a 2 humbucker stingray for a while.

Rigsby · 12-02-2009 12:28PM

Lovely bass.

Best of luck with it.

Dord · 12-02-2009 12:37PM

Darkstrike, I have a bass with series & parrallel switches also. I think they're awesome.

I find that I can get a really nice tone by switching one pickup to series and one to parrallel. Usually neck to series and bridge to parrallel.

Darkstrike · 12-02-2009 02:49PM

Thanks everyone! I might be in love!:D

And Dord, I tried out that setting, and its awesome! Just the right blend of smooth and agressive.:cool:

I'm also really diggin' the supplied finger ramp. Might get some perspex and make a few up for other basses.:)

Oh! And decent pronz!

jarain · 12-02-2009 03:05PM

Man I love that guitar, stick a rosewood board on there and I'd be in heaven.

Hahaha! I waited for months and months extra to find a maple boarded one!:D

Though, the rosewood ones do look sweet as well.............

Cheers dude!:)

Jaysus, thats even more of a mighty fine looking bass now that i seen some better pics. If that were a 5 stringer and i knew that bass existed i might have gone down that route, Id imagine its mighty flexible sounding with the series/parralell switch?

Darkstrike · 12-02-2009 04:53PM

They began as V's, but are out of the market now, supposedly coming back this year, hehe, might need one myself!:D

And yeah, mega versatile! So far, I've only had it two days, but I found a lot of sounds already.:)

munkydanny · 13-02-2009 02:28PM

I'm not much a bass man..

but DAMN! She fine!!!
