New Bass
« on: June 13, 2020, 09:12:56 AM »
Bought an NS Design WAV Double Bass.  Been 35 to 40 years since I've played upright.  Building up hand strength and doing scales right now.

Having a lot of fun with it.

I love those. Especially with the piezo, it's a really great sounding EUB, very close to a "real" upright as long as you don't mix in the magnetic pickups. And plays like buttah.

Congrats!  I have had an NXT for a while, and I keep coming back to it for a few minutes, then wandering off.  I used to have a King white bass, but was dumb and gave it up when moving.  The NS basses are well designed and nice to play.

They certainly sound good in the visual reviews I've found...  8)
