Medium scale necks are cool.
I would want it if it was a set neck instead of a bolt on.

I love Hamers double cuts. I've got a 93 Special Humbucker thats great and just traded a 92 P90 Special for a 1976 Fender Rhodes 73 Suitcase Piano that has the 4X12 cabinet with the built in amp. The P90's made that guitar scream.
I want to order a black double cut bass to go with the white one pictured above.
Here's my latest short scale. My camera sucks as does my picture taking ability but this one sounds good through the old Music Man guitar amp.

BassVI, Thanks for the offer. I've already placed an order with Allparts for them. The order was accepted and paid so I'll wait an see. According to thier site the items were in stock so I'm hoping to get them.

I didn't know they were in Houston, they are getting slammed down there.
I've got a buddy down there who always sends me pics when this sort of thing happens. He'll be on his Jet Ski on the road in front of his house acting crazy and taking pics of it

If my order doesn't happen I'll let you know.

Thanks guys.
I thought I emailed Allparts but maybe I am wrong.
Just went back and checked and they were one of the ones who I haven't heard back from yet.
Uwe, Thats the bridge. Thanks for the offer. I will see if I can get it here in the states first.
And Thanks Dave W for the links.

The Bass Zone / Need Schaller Bridge and Tuners
« on: September 12, 2008, 10:34:26 AM »
I'm looking for a Schaller 4 string "Bass Bridge 2000" and a set of 2 on a side M4 tuners in "Black" to go on this latest custom order Hamer B4M of mine.

There was no black available from Hamer when I ordered it so I figured I would just switch it out after the fact and use the chrome for something else.

Only problem is there are only a few Schaller dealers here in the states and so far all I've found is the usual roller bridge and nobody has the 2000 model. I found a set of the tuners but if I can't get the bridge there's no sense in buying the tuners.
And I've been told by everyone I've contacted that ordering one for me is not an option. I told them I would be willing to pay up front and didn't care if it was a couple of months wait.

So where does a person buy one????? Any leads would be appreciated.

Here's a pic of the bass.



If this request should be in a different area the mods can feel free to move it for me.
Thanks,
Marcus

You can buy these from SD if you want them. Just email and they'll send you a quote.

Coolest looking bass I've seen in a long time. I forgot to add if you don't like the different colored pickups I have a set in the parts drawer that look just like them. One was stored in a display case and is slightly yellowed and the other was stored in a cabinet and looks new. But both are new unused pickups.
I've never used them because of the color difference.

Congrat's on the new one. It will make a fine addition to your collection.

Gibson Basses / Interesting TBird Pic

Here's a pic I found while doing a search today. I thought it was pretty cool. I like the three pickup model but it would be cooler in red.

Thanks for the answer.
I figured it would work if the body wasn't already drilled for the bridge. The body I have in mind right now is just a one piece mahogany blank I have. I have 2 of them sitting in my garage just waiting to be used for something. I may just have to pick up one of those neck blanks.

The green would look cool with or without the stripes.

I was thinking of trying to put a medium scale fretboard on one of these.
Anyone think it would work?

Sweet looking Sunn amps you have there. I keep figuring I'll come across one someday.
I used 2 Acoustic 370's back in the early 70's. I had a Sunn tube head and a Sound City speaker for practice.
The Sunn was cool.
