Waterstone 12 string bass vids.

Post by weemac »

Hi all!
I've just put up some 12ver bass demos on the tube, there will be one more to come (with the new one) when I get it done.
They are rough and ready but very honest!

And..

They are demonstrations from the first and second series of TP-12/32 basses (the third series is to come)

Hey! I look kind of like Hagrid at the moment don't I... :lol:

Cool sound! Thanks for posting those! :D
I have NO idea what to do with those skinny stringed things... I'm just a bass player...

Yeah, low action helps!! I had to walk the fine line of buzz / action cause I play fairly hard.

Eden, do you own these or were you just demo-ing them? That green one is HOT.

Fret buzz can be your friend.. :lol:

I own all of them, I don't really play any other instruments much at the moment (apart from my RM1999)..
I got the green one because of the weight thing. The big flat body encourages you to stand straight so it's not so much as back pain, but the weight puts a lot of pressure on your tumtum and believe it or not they give you indegestion....
So reducing the weight will hopefuly stop me feeling ill during the third set! :mrgreen:

Kidding, of course. First time I've seen the white one from that angle. If you ever change your mind on it, give me a yell. :wink: Good videos.
