Is that a DiMarzio?

Correct Dave a Dimarzio Model G. It's going under a chrome Tbird pickup cover.

But of course!

Finally got around to this bass this morning.

Yesterday I used silicone caulk to attach the cover to the Model G. Today was spent cutting and installing the pg, installing the tail piece, tug bar and doing the wiring. As always I love the sound of the model G. Sure makes a pretty convincing NR!

I see some Modelmaster paints!

Dave W · March 02, 2014, 04:33:01 PM

That's a nice sunburst. Does look convincing with the cover.

My hats off to Rob for getting these done and I am proud to have had a small part in supplying info on NRs to Rob. This is the bass Gibson should have built no real reason why they couldn't. Bill and I consulted with Gibson and they ignored most of our recommendations and ended up with a dog ( imho). Rob and Bach listened to what we recommended and we got a great product.

That's why I have two of them!
