I thought it was cool looking at first, but now it looks wierd and grainy...almost like it's giving my eyes splinters.

[Jody LeCompte]

I need like...$80 dollars more...

yeah i understand what you're saying... but it is possible its just the peice of wood on there, and maybe if you bought one you would get a better peice

[Kibuddy]

It looks almost as if it hasn't been finished, yet...

maybe we can email kurt is it? and he can make changes?

[sixner]

Not bad, though the horns look similar to a peavey Cirrus.... the wood grain is nice IMO...

[jaco jr]

has it been glossed
it may be the pictures but it seems dull - it needs a natural gloss oil over it:thumb:

[Tonys_Theme]

Yea, what Sade said.

[Jimbobntnr]

I wouldn't count on that at all. Most businesses are very, very picky about the products that they put on slicks. Compare your big mac to the one on the menu next time your at McD's.

[peeted]

well i usualy think that brices look a bit poo but this ones an exception.

[FunkMetalBass]

I like the body shape of it. I'd prefer a different top-wood though, or maybe a transparent red finish.

[Foxfire]

Yeha, it looks hot. If only it wasn't 400 bucks...

:upset: :angry:

I have a Brice. I like it... Nothing but compliments. I'm not sure if it's because it looks sweet or if it's because it has six strings.

I just bought a Yamaha Air Cell strap for it yesterday off line. Thanks Gav (I think) for recommending it a couple weeks ago... My shoulder will appreciate it, I hope.

Edit: BTW, I like that bass. I'd like it more if it had a gloss finish and a neck-thru design. I love my neck on my Brice.

[grayt]

It's alright but I'm not a fan of six strings anyway so what do I know.

i kinda want one of these basses, they look pretty cool.

[Phalanx]

if only your mum wasnt 400bucks - then id be able to go toher every day:naughty:

[PaulR]

Something doesn't look right. I don't know what it is, but something.

[The_Red_Death]

If they had more of a contour on the lower horn and a better finish, I'd be buying that. Still, it looks nice.

[Kibuddy]

Save for the very bottom, it's not carved at all. It's just a slab of wood.


That's what I think is off, anyways.

That's right. You did recommend it. Gav just agreed with me when I thought the strap was upside down, which it was. :thumb:

Hopefully it's up to my expectations... I hope to find real musicians soon and start playing. Right now I'm playing with people who aren't serious at all... what a waste of talent, IMO.

[FunkMetalBass]

The maple neck protruding through to the pickup is what seems off to me.

I wonder how I can contact Brice. I'd love to see what a 7-string would be like.

I'm still considering trying a Galveston 8...

[Esp Griffyn]

I'm still considering trying a Galveston 8...

Good God no!

And as for that Brice, it looks nice, but its 35", so thats that out of the window.

[Chris K]

I panned it at talkbass and now I'm panning it here. It sucks.

[FunkMetalBass]

Have you ever played it?

Yeah, it's got pretty good reviews (http://www.harmony-central.com/Bass/Data4/Galveston/8_String__Unpaired_-1.html) from what I've read.

Also, I take it you don't play long scale basses?

[burtonbassist_101]

it looks good...i want one

[Panda Licker]

It looks perty cool


but it aint got **** on the brice Hollowbody they have at Rondo.

I WILL get one of those



ya know I hate it when people bring up Brice. Now I'm diein for a Violin bass...

[Your Tourniquet]

I hate 6ers, but I make an exception for this one. I like... not enough to buy one, though.

That strap is awesome. Really. I used to have a Dunlop DD40 on my SX 5er and it hurt my shoulder/upper back majorly, but I switched to the Air Cell strap and it feels practically weightless now (it feels like it weighs less than my GSR200). The only downside to those straps is that if you're overweight (like myself), it's a bit high. It took me awhile to get used to having my bass 5 inches higher than normal.

ha..i got lucky when i went to rondo music, and they had an old 34" scale hxb sixer that was a floor model for $100 cheaper. so i got more than i wanted for less money.

[BassVirtuoso]

Brice string spacing makes me want to kill myself.

[JeBuSrOcKs]

i really like the look of that bass. i would get it

[Linkinbassist]

I'd be up for trying it out...
