spud bass

Some pics of my bass guitars. Cos, you know, they're awesome.

First up my Warwick Corvette $$ (double humbucker pick up configuration), limited to 20 made with these woods; this is number 20/20.





And here is my Warwick 6 String Thumb Bass. This badboy is currently fretless. It used to be fretted but a previous owner removed the frets (did a fucking bang up job on it too!). I'm taking it up to Sydney in the next couple of weeks to get it refretted - turns out I'm too fucking lazy to learn fretless, and my style is way to sloppy as well






And here they both are together:

Very nice

lol fk me, 6 string fretless bass! Sounds like hell

[spud]

heh it is! I mean, I can play it, I just have to watch what I'm doing and think about it too much to really enjoy it. Once it gets fretted than I'm good to bash the shit out of it without worry about being an 1/8 of a tone out

Les Claypool would be proud of you spud. I'll have to post up some pics of my Sexy flying V

I never thought I'd say this but that's an impressive instrument Spud

awesome, love the wood grain on the Warwick. How many musicians in PiT? i play harmonica (love my rack of Lee Oscars), a hack on guitar (a Guild and Takamini acoustics and a custom Ibanez electric, and a Martin backpackers) and can circular a didge ok when i get going...

scored myself a 5 string Fender Jazz bass yesterday. Pics to come (one day, in the future, if I remember....)

They are both Warwicks mate! The 4 String is $$ Corvette and the 6er is a Thumb Bass. I got the call from the luthier today - he has put the frets on it and all it needs is some strings. Will be getting it back on the weekend. Exciting times

nice, i meant the second Warwick then, sweet wood...!

That's fucking beautiful, Spud.... reminiscent of one of Tony Iommi's
