Show Us Your Basses (Part 2)


Well I took half a day this weekend and went up to Portland and spent a couple hours playing every Fender bass guitar they had in the store (they had nearly every model, Player ii, Player Plus, Performer, Professional ii, AVRI ii in both Jazz and Precision, even a Mustang and a Jag). Ended up coming home with this beauty. Couldn’t resist $200 off and a free Hercules wall hanger.

This is my brand new Aperion 4 String. I have never touched it, it was just made by Tim Sway at New Perspective Music. He has played it for me and it sounds better than it looks. Tim is an artist, a bit of a crazy dude, but an amazing creator of eco-friendly/conscious musical instruments.

Welcome aboard @Mike.Bergstrom

That’s crazy wild 29 frets?
Is it an integrated ramp? I couldn’t tell if it’s radius under the string?

Cool man. What kind of Emg pickup under 35 TW?

This is a gift from me to myself for learning Cult of Personality lol. Dingwall NG3 5 string. I wanted to make sure I kept up with bass and it wasn’t just a temporary phase before I shelled out money for something big. I’m just about ready for my progressive metal era

From your covers, I surmise you like stuff at the heavier end of things. You’re gonna freakin’ rock out with the Dingwall :metal:
