Talking Odd Fender

This one isnt really interesting or unique....but odd...It's a Fender Bronco (I think ) anyways,I have never seen a Fender with a see thru body they must have stopped production due to lack of sales or whatever.

Yeah, its the ever so classic bootsy collins signature bass, but the one he mainly used was racked with J pickups like you said.

Heres a pic showing it, on his signature strings.

Great body on this spalted wood thumb bass, not too keen on the dragon inlay, completely ruins it IMO, but the body! mmm!

the body looks deformed and i hate the color of it. the inlay designes are pretty cool but the body throws it all off. and the position of the pickups looks retarted. get rid of the body and get a profesionally crafted body and it would make a fine bass.

Man thats a damn fine lookin thumb. Obviously MegaBassPlayer knows nothing about woods, pickup placement, or about crafting bodies.

That wood is awsome. Thumbs are so cumfortable. Speaking of professional, regular warwicks are quite nicly crafted I would imagine a CS would be amazing.

Opinion is one thing, which is perfectly fine, but you dont trash an instruments quality based on the fact that you dont like it.

I must admit, the pickup placements on the 4 string thumbs are much easier to play, and have a wider variation of tones, with the closer neck pickup aswell.

There is actually a picture of a 3 string bass in this thread, you'll have to dig for it though.

I used to have one of those when I was a kid, except it was Marshall. It came with my Bill and Ted action figures, Lol. I ended up just giving it to my dad and he still has it!

heres a unique and interesting bass for u guys...........made by me and my freind......it used to be a Yamaha 4 string bass......after months of cutting, sculpting, sanding, fabricating, prep, prime, paint and clear heres the finished product.......made stricly for metal......what u think

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y2...sh/PB030007.jpg

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y2.../PB030003-1.jpg

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y2...sh/PB010021.jpg

http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y2...esh/Photo13.jpg



the bass plays, sounds and stays in tune NICELY....i swapped the pickups but the sound seems to cut out...i prolly did something wrong....i think im missing a resistor somewhere..........eventually ill prolly get some nice EMGs for this bad boy and have it wired nice and fully functional...these pics dont do justice...ill try and get some better shots eventually

Im into radical and pointy shapes, so I think it looks quite cool. Good job dude. Have you heard of Neal Moser? Probably I guess but if you havent check his work out. Its pretty awesome. Im definitely ordering some custom guitars and basses from him once the financial situation improves.

thanx man glad u like it........now if only i knew more about guitar and bass electronics id be set........id wire up some nice active EMGs to this bad boy......imma have to take it somewhere and get it done RIGHT.......oh and the real beaty about this bass is that we took so much body off it weights like 7 pounds lol.......its awesome......when the electronics are working right ill prolly use my ESP 5 string for my softer band and use this monster for the brutal band....ill have to relearn the songs on 4 string but itll be worth it.........i see ur in LI too....good shit.....what bands do u play/played in

and no never heard of Neal Moser but will definitly be checking into it

Yea man, if you dont know how to do the electronics you could take it to someone to get it done. I think there are sites that explain the whole wiring process and all, but i never got into that. I just buy a guitar and get a tech to put new pickups in for me and whatever. I never played in a band before actually. College takes up alot of my time and when i join/start a band i want to fully dedicated to it. So the band thing is gonna have to wait till after college. I still jam and shit with friends. Im into alot of different bands so I play different things, mostly rock and metal though.
check out this site to see some of Neal Moser's work:http://www.nealmoser.com/ It has links to alot of other places so browse around. Theres alot of cool stuff there.
