Ah finally a video where people actually play it, instead of just holding it :O
Gotta say it sounds awesome though

 

[Duarte]

Sounds great. So so great. Passive mode especially I think...there is something about that sound with bridge and middle pickups on. I am having one of these!

 

[Sonnyonbass]

Sounds pointy! ;-)
Really cool sounds that you can get out of that thing!
5 string version any1?


Why oh why won't they do more vids.....
Every1 can hear that this is also no 1 trick pony!

That a great sounding bass. The best slap sound I have heard from an EBMM.

Man... now i am up in the air about a 25th and a Big AL. How does an Olive Gold AL with Vintage White PG, Rosewood board and Matching headstock sound?

 

[MingusBASS]

Wow, the Big Al sounds awesome. I can't wait to try one.

 

[sloshep]

I like it , I like it alot!

Very nice vid, of a very nice bass. Kudos to BC for shooting this. I think that these vids, Brandt's, and Ed's are such a great help when shopping and comparing when the instruments aren't readily playable in an area.

I definately like what the Al's got goin' on for it.

The harmonics sound awesome. Overall a very good sounding bass (as expected)!

The slap tone is SICK!!

The slap tone is SICK!!

An unnamed, highly-placed source deep inside SLO informed me that certain rather well-known musicians have opined that the Big Al is, in fact, a funk monster.

Big Al before a Bongo? Probably! I have never seen a sexier bass.

Thanks to the BC guys for doing the vid, great to see and hear it in action and really really helpful for us furriners

I can only echo the other comments before me - that Big Al slap sound is just fantastic.

Geez, now that's another one I have to to add to the list...

 

[Basspro]

Funkadellic..What a tone monster. Of course EB does it again.WTG

 

[Rano Bass]

Damn it, it sounds a lot better than i expected!
Now i'll have to try one of these
Can't wait for the Ed Friedland review of the Big Al.

 

[Stoo]

sigh.

(takes Sharpie and draws line through "Bongo" on piggy bank, then scratches "Big AL" over it with a penknife...)

I love my Sterling becuase it does things my dual single-coil basses don't--and still does a lot of the things they do. It makes a perfect complement to them.

When I first saw the Big AL, I got a bit fluttery at the thought of 3 singles to choose from. Then I had a chance to skim over a Sterling HS and liked the neck single quite a bit.

That vid just completely taunts me as to what this thing might do. And, the thing just radiates "Cool."

(resigned, heads of to check color offerings and pulling out the sofa cushions along with household appliances to check for any lost change...)

 

[oli@bass]

I HATE this video!

 

[Oldtoe]

That bass is AWESOME. Period.
