Oh, fretless Big Als are just SO right!! I'd LOVE to see that with that gold swirl p/g they offered last year.

That tort guard is precious, very very nice, some tort guards I hate because they are tacky and too jazzy but this one instead is very nice and classy. Congrats

Yeah, now looking at the other pics, that's a nice tort guard. I didn't like the one that came w/my 'Ray 5H; too dark, hardly any "figure"/color in it.

I would also like to see a gold swirl guard on it as well. But I really do like the tort guard that is on it now.

Some live pics.

Awesome pics.

This brings me to a theory about the Big Al. Did Big Poppas crew design it to look good when you are playing and not to look good when hanging on the wall? :eek:

I remember that my first reaction when seeing on at a music store was not really positive. Then I saw a video somewhere on youtube a few months later and though "That bass player has an awesome looking bass, hey wait a minute... that a Big Al!"

You pictures proves my personal theory. That Bass looks great. Now I cant wait for the Grand Wazoo to get his and post some pictures as thats the color combo I'm thinking of :D

So what's the verdict on the Big AL H? Does it capture the old school Musicman vibe? The thought of traditional EBMM sound + modern pre amp makes me giddy :eek:
