Gavs ESB-4 Hollowbody Bass

[djdubya]

That turned out real nice Gav!

Any chance of a shot of it alongside it's hollowbody stablemates for comparison? ...or maybe to fuel a few cases of GAS?

Thanks Dennis!

It's hard to get a good photo here in the man cave, but here's the best I can do:



cheers,
Gav.

She's alive! Wiring install took only 15 minutes! a new record!!!
I've never had a bass before, but she feels and sounds aweome!
Here's some quick happy snaps. Better photos to come.

It looks even better all assembled than I imagined, I just love the subtlety of that burst, it almost looks "pastel".
A true thing of beauty Gav!

nice looking wall Gav, a great looking (part of your) collection !

[pablopepper]

Look at all those f holes! That collection is rather drool inducing Gav.

@Wokka, @Barge, @Pablo - thanks guys. I do love a nice f-hole!! :P

cheers,
Gav.

Thanks for the comparison photo Gav. Looks like you've still got some space on that wall

I've just ordered an ES-1GT tonight and have started scratching my head over colour and hardware choices. Will have to start a build thread and seek some advice from the lads on the forum I think. Was looking at your blog before and picked up a few ideas.

Hopefully the bass is going in the monthly comp?

Cheers,

Dennis.

@Dennis - you'll love the ES. The 335 semi-hollows are such great kits to finish and the resulting guitars are just so awesome. I do have some room on my wall, you are right, but I also have 6 completed solid bodies lying around the room in need of hangers!

For the bass, I'm just waiting on a decal from Andy before submitting for GOTM. Hopefully I will be in time.

cheers,
Gav.

Those hollow bodies look awesome Gav. Must be terrible having to decide which one to play!
Got your decal posted off a couple of days ago...you should get it early in the week.
All the best for GOTM, the bass is superb.

Cheers
Andy

Thanks Andy, and special thanks for the quick turnaround on the decal . You da man! (sic)

cheers,
Gav.
