Has anyone ever heard of a Soprano bass before? There's one for sale at Bunnies. It's a 25" scale. Something like a piccolo I guess but tuned in BEAD. http://www.bunnybass.com/bass/alembic_sI_soprano.shtml Manfred | ||

Very Nice indeed! It seems it was a guitar before if I understand the text well. The "sex-changement-operation" was done by Alembic. As for "picolo" basses: I've played one at my friend Edwin's place in Hilversum. Check this thread: http://alembic.com/club/messages/411/3287.html?1043886558 | ||

I know Edwin's piccolo as well (the bass that is), I also played it a bit, but that one is tuned EADG and this one BEAD. Also the electronics are different. I don't know about Edwin's little baby (again, I'm talking about his bass), but this one has series I electronics. Paul, did you know that Edwin is waiting for a new EVH bass. It seemes to be similar to the one I owned. He used the picture of my old bass for it at: http://www.connectionbult.com/bass/bassmain.html He's expecting it in a few months. Best, Manfred | ||

Aha, he told me something about it! ...seems I have to go there and have a look. Anyway I'm almost there in my saving-program for the SF-2 and the DS-5R so I defenitely have to go there. Of course you were right on the electronics. I was just referring to the scale and the word "Piccolo". CU |
