a lot of them are hand made. Not hand made well, but still hand made in some shed somewhere. -

Best or worst? (I played through a TC BQ500 at a rehearsal studio and it was pants!) -

It really depends, sometimes you'll come across a boutique bass that goes around in circles, and it has no end really!

Sorry, it had to be in 20 words or less. -
Thanks for your answers so far. I'm positive that this is a 90s bass, serial number dates it to April 1995. It is a very cool one-off, with predominantly wenge neck, wide string spacing, black hardware, Bartolini PUPs and electronics and beautiful flame maple body wings. However, given the general consensus here (which agrees with my gut feeling about it), I think I shall pass on it

I go this about 11:30 last night... it's off a 20-year-old album. I have the freedom to be creative but will start by learning the original, now in a minute... -
I think this bit is the end of a boutique bass:

Welcome Dan, If you like shorties, you could do a LOT worse than check fellow member @Jabba_the_gut's Build Diaries. Here's one he did earlier - He has made a few very interesting instruments if you browse through the Diaries' sub-forum.

Before realising this was an E.J. Tribb (17.5) masterpiece I thought it was a long lost verse of What a Waste. P.s. how do I get a 1/2 on my phone keypad? 😟 -

Second hand prices do seem very low , that ACG on here seems crazy cheap to me but I guess they've never held their value like fenders etc Why do you think they're dead OP , I'd actually say people are a bit more open minded about them now than 20 years ago when they seemed particularly out of fashion
