    Default Some GAS





    Zon Hyperbass.

    3 octave neck, 4 detuners, 3way EQ. Currently in piccolo tuning.

    rare as rocking horse shit. And I love it!

    Time to get a new detuner bridge and a couple of e-bows?

    Excessively good GAS

    I have a couple of ebows!

    the detuner bridge (when bought new) adds $1500 to the price! And the 4 detuners on the headstock are enough of a mindfuck - the bloke I got it from had 3 of them set to drop between a tone and a 3rd, but one tuned the other way, so "dropping" it was a return to standard from the higher pitch he had set.

    excessive isn't the word, the wife has given me 3 days to decide what is getting offloaded to pay for it of else she will eBay her choice of my kit!!!!

    I had to do it while I had the chance.

    there are 2 in the UK including this one. The bloke I bought it from also has the other one. He's sold only because the 1 only 6 string version has come up for sale and he needed to raise some funds.

    So there was no way I was going to miss the chance!

    Expect ham fisted versions of Michael Manring tunes!!!

    Don't blame you one little bit. Was the same when I got your Fortress, do it now or regret it. Which I don't. Tempted to put a detuner on the E though.

    I'd be worried by the deadline from Mrs. fret though, you know she'll pick the one thing you want to keep

    I'm going to sell my Marleaux Consat Custom 5 and my Jap P bass I think. Then if my Mark Bass cabs go too and I don't replace them then I'll be close enough for her to be ok!
