The wonders of a Czech bass!
« on: September 24, 2017, 06:09:21 AM »
I really dig the sound built in my Bach T-bird! Last night I took it to the gig with Jukon Speakers. Here's the deep sound of it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=63zHHnk49jg

Cool.

For a sec there I thought Jukon was some brand of speakers we don't get here and I got a little excited... then I looked at the vid title.

Is yer drummer a lefty?

Fun stuff and a good song too. The stock Arctec  pickup still in there?
Contrary to what James Bond says, a good Gibson should be stirred, not shaken.

Yes, on both question. Drummer's a lefty - though only with half the body! He takes care of bassdrum, and high-hat, as though he's right-handed! I can't understand it!!!

And, yes, the pickup is the original Artec. It works so good that I can't find a reason to change it. Only upgrading I've done is getting the finger rest on board. And that is only cosmetics...

The neck is nothing but faboulous! Great bass! I'm so glad Basvarken got that deal together! Fantastic work, with the most wonderful end result! Thanks again, Rob!

I was like Jake and thought there was a new cabinet out there.
That sounded great!

Very nice, solid bass sound.  I like it a lot.
