The Last Bass Outpost

Gratuliere! A steal. Only possible on prison islands. This will be your favourite bass from now on, simple as that. Your tribute buddies will have to get used to it.

Having played an LP Standard in your younger days of matching shirts, you know how all-out rock a Gibson bass can be, but the Grabber II tops even an LP in sheer no holds barred raucousness.

Wunderbar und vielen Dank!

I wonder how much TBird will be left in it now that it
is short scale.

I came up with Gripp3r!  Fine basses they are, no complaints. And I agree the P/J combo sounds beefy on those, yet has clarity.

We will very soon know more on how these play. I have requested a well-known TBird connaisseuse in one of the more North-Western states of the USA (one nation under Canada) to obtain one for us.  She wishes to have her identity protected for the time being. Given that today is International Women's Day, I thought the choice more than fitting.

You lied, John, those weren't Bryan Ferry vids at all, there were no models in them!

 

But they sure parodied his style well! 

Riot inciting comments these are.

I have a hunch Fräulein Rommel will very soon have one of these. Goes well with her miniskirts and the band is, after all, called The Nasty Hobbits.

I love Scotty's vocal parts best!!!

Here it is, in full glory. Between NAMM and the market release a pickguard crawled onto the body. Not sure if I like this better though. They dragged the width of the pg for whatever reason all the way up to the side of the neck, necessitating cutouts for the TB Plus pups in the process. Unheard of with a Rev TBird - sacrilege!!!    All in all, it looks very Studio now.
