After 5 month and 1 day finally my Single H arrived. It is a beauty AND a light weight. Not sure if this is the different body wood (the black and white are alder) or the smaller electronics and missing pickups. I will testdrive it the next days with my Orange...

(Sorry for the crap photos. I hope that the next iphone will have a camera)

I'd love to hear you comparison of the H to the SSS. I find the SSS to have very distinct and useable tone differences in it's various settings. But as BP stated, the SSS does have it's own voice.

Alright, I have been trying to upload some pics of my Big Al Olive Gold Sparkle here from work to no avail.

I just replaced the Gold Swirl PG with a flat black. I must say it looks stunning. I was hoping to share this with everyone but will have to wait until I get home as the network here doesn't seem to want me to do this. I will try and post tonight. Rest assured, it looks fantastic.

Olive Gold Big Al

This one is growing on me, week by week. Is that pickguard cool, or what?

Blissful Single H:

Olive gold sparkle with black pickguard

Finally got a pic uploaded. Finding it hard to get more than one. I'll try for more, but you get the point.

 

[Kamakiriad]

Both of the above pickguards are awesome. And great color combo Moondog!

Here's my trusty Candy Red BA4 HHH with the matching headstock. She rocks.

Great basses you all got there! Congrats!

I would love to read more on the tonal differences on the different models too.

My Big Al SSS (Neck/Middle/Bridge) gives me:
the absolutely wonderfully unique "Big Al sound" with all PU-knobs out (M & B in series)
a perfect Jazz Bass sound with B & N on with both its active and passive variants.
a good P-Bass sound (M on)
an ok Stingray sound (M & B on in parallel)
a not quite so good shortscale-mudbucker sound (N on) (how should he)
a not quite so good G & L -ish doublebucker sound (N & M & B on)

Does the Single-H Big Al nail the Stingray-sound and the "Big-Al-sound"?
I doubt it has as much charakter as the Big-Al-SSS with all its knobs out, but we will hear your comparison, won't we, stereo_monkey?

my Big Al 5...first one delivered (so I am told)...Pearl White with matching headstock...SSS...Tort pick guard. I have had it since late March and it is the only bass i have been using besides my SR5...

Damn... that is nice!!

Thanks! I know black seems kind-of bland and a lot of us are always requesting the more interesting colours, but for me, it just seems to suit this particular bass.
