new basses.

i couldn't help it. i had to get a second sandberg.

below that is my first act delgada.









i've got another first act on the way that will be so much more amazingly ugly, i can't wait.

Very nice! I'm really curious about that Delgada.

[Agent00Soul]

I love that white one! Never heard of Delgada. Any chance of a review?

[Jeroen]

If you ever sell that First Act...

[jnewton]

i don't know about a review review, but here are some observations...

despite my expectations, no neck dive. the pickups (kent armstrong bass hb) are kinda "eh" for me. i'm going to throw some dimarzios in it. i really like the hipshot bridge & tuners. it feels totally solid.

if you've got any questions about it, ask away.

Very cool. I've seen lefty Delgada guitars but this is the first lefty bass I've seen. Is First Act making this standard now or are they still a custom order? What's the pricing, if you don't mind my asking?

Having the strap button in the center of the neck plate is probably helping the neck dive big time. Are those PUPs standard size for a simple DiMarzio drop in or are you going to have to re-route it?

[jnewton]

i think they're still custom order. i'm pretty sure they're regular sized hb's.

i'm not sure what the pricing is on these, i'm working out an endorsement deal with them.

that first act is wicked cool!
