UPDATE Jan 7 Anniversary Bass preview

[Bass Control]

I'm going to go ahead and ask this question...

Since you are planning for this to become a regular production model, and given that it is the "Axis for Bass Players," is there any thought or opinion on there being a Rosewood Axis Bass made available quite like the current Rosewood Axis guitars?

 

[the unrepentant]

Is this only going to be available for a year then? I was hoping it would be a permanent resident of the EBMM stable...

Also, at risk of being flogged to death, that HH model really reminds me of a G&L ASAT. In a good way though, i really like it!

 

[pepperman]

Well, the 25th will have a limited availability. Otherwise, it will be a regular part of the EBMM stable, if I read BP correctly.

 

[paranoid70]

Well, since all of us knuckleheads are just speculating... I can't imagine spending all those resources in R&D making a "new" model guitar & bass only to offer it for a limited run. But, what do I know?

 

[the unrepentant]

Good point, and i hope you're right!

 

[bovinehost]

I think BP did say it would become a regular member of the team, but I'd expect the 25th to be (a) limited to the year and (b) extra-snazzy special.

Which, really, we can see that already.

I apologise if this has been addressed already (it's a big thread to wade through) , but has the bass been named yet? I see people referring to it as the ''axis" bass . Is that official or a temporary name attributed due to the shape. Thanks.

So, fancy tops?

I think it's been named; just not publicly revealed yet.

This is an approved hijack as I am very happy to have lost about 60 pounds this year.....

ITs calories in and calories out...its retraining your metabolism by eating smaller portions every two hours...On my program I ate fifteen grams of protien every two hours and just ate sensibly cutting out sugar and processed flour and mopst bad stuff...I was never hungry and once you get away from the bad stuff you realize how bad and addicting it is.......I exercised once in Tokyo but that really helps and I need to get going on that to maintain that loss

And you look great. THose calves have to be ginetics though. I go to the gym all the time and mountain bike and my calves aren't even a quarter of yours

Hijack: Does your gym have a seated calf raise machine as well as a standing calf raise station? The calf is made up of two muscles, you need to hit both using the two different machines with heavy weight to change what genetics gave you in the calf department.

 

[Joey SQUID]

Yes and I use both machines. I try not to over work them otherwise I can't walk afterwards

back to the bass!

...I'm still waiting on a name.. and color ???

I was hoping for sasquatchray but not that I know it has an Axis body I’m betting on … saxisquatch. hehe

Baxis?

Nah. Lame.

I think it's time to name more basses after key people. We've already got the Sterling.

I vote Dudley. The guy surely deserves to have something named after him!
