Serek Lincoln

Seems much inspired by Gibson of yore, except that headstock!

A lot of Serek's stuff seems "Gibson inspired", at least to my eyes. The headstock on this one has somewhat of a Warwick flavour I'd say.

I've never played any of his basses though. Wouldn't mind trying out a couple of them someday, although I'm not likely to be a part of his target market.

I came across a video of him playing one of his basses with a P-90 shaped pickup (but 4 pole). IIRC he winds them himself. Sounded good. Mahogany body. Definitely Gibson inspired.

The headstock doesn't quite work for me but the body is cool, the love child of a Q80 and a Grabber = a not so Fat Bottomed Girl!

I, too, find the Grabber influence appealing.  This is really a nice looking bass.

There's a 32" scale option. Specs for weight are "6-9 lbs". I'd take a 6 lbs. 32" bass any day.

Someone has to break it to you, Ilan: You're way too tall and lanky for anything but a long scale bass! Short scale basses are to tall people like fetish sex: A guilty (I'm Catholic!) pleasure, yes, but keep it confined to the bedroom please!

There, I said it where all others chose to remain silent.  8)

Here are two pics of me with a 30" mustang and a 25.5" 6-string piccolo bass otherwise known as a Tele.

You'll zip up real quick, be quiet and get married. Your wild days are behind you.
