Make your loose neck pocket a tight fit with this genius fix

Kaman...? It's a Bell OH58A that went down in Whitfield, Maine, 30th May 2014... Pilot got the blame...

A Wishbass thread! Excellent! I've been looking for an excuse...

But that's good, because it's "organic," right??

I guess He'd sound the same on Jaco's personal bass.

Here's a guy with a very early (#5) Wishbass, ugly as f*** but sounds good.

[Dave W]

Doesn't sound good to me. At least he can play.

[ilan]

How about this one?

[Basvarken]

Doesn't sound very well balanced to me. All the notes on the G string are too loud in comparison to the other strings. But maybe that's his playing technique.
At least this guy can play.
The ones in the other videos not so much. And especially the two guys in the Wishbass demo. They could at least have tuned their instruments...

Way too middish for me all those sounds. I blame the pup placement way back at the bridge. I never ever play just the bridge pup on a double pup bass - can't stand that tone. That is also why I never was such a great Jaco fan - I find mids at the expense of almost any other frequency tiring.

All of the videos are all mids all the time.

Jaco? Not a fan at all.

The man playing the bass in that Wishbass demo clip is the inventor himself if I'm not mistaken.

[Basvarken]

That is hilarious!

I thought so too.  But if that is what his audience is looking for . . . . YIKES

[doombass]

His approach seems to be low cost at all costs. And once again, he can't actually play, only demonstrate the aquired taste sound:

[Basvarken]

I tried to watch the entire video. But I just can't sit it out. Tried twice but gave up  after a minute or so.
Nothing seems to work properly. And he doesn't seem to care.
Now I know exactly why his builds look and sound they way they do.
