  1. IT IS AN AWSOME BASS INDEED!

    I've found some info about this bass (or at least a very same one) here: (If you don't mind) :)
    [url="http://www.gakki.com/catalog30/bacchus_venus.jpg"]http://www.gakki.com/catalog30/bacchus_venus.jpg[/url]
    You can find some review about it on : www.harmony-central.com (Bacchus Venus4-FL)

    scale length 34"?
    string spacing 17mm at the bridge?

    Good luck with the sale...

  2. Thanks mate! :) The scale length is 30". I think the same as the Hofner Violin bass or so...

    The frets are in good condition just a bit of fret wear due to its age, but It wasn't in use for a long long time. I forgot to tell the nut has been changed to a bone one intsead the plastic one it has had by a luthier earlier in June. It hasn't got any cracking just a few dings and nicks.

  3. [b]Heyyyy Everyone!!!

    Can anyone help me how much does this EKO 990 Barracuda bass? I have a chance to swap it for an Ibanez Studio bass plus cash from me. Does It (Eko) worth less or more than 300 quids? I really appreciate any suggestions.
    Please If anyone has an idea just post your opinion. I' m having cold feet to make a deal.[/b]

    :rolleyes:

    Hi folks! I'm new here but I really like the BC site. I live in Hungary, but I'm going to visit the Island in July.

    Here we go. I have an[b] EKO Barracuda Bass[/b] 4 string, full size all maple semi-hollow body, 4 position pick-up selector, chromed tail piece, fully adjustable bridge, Double T Bar neck. It was restrung this month with D'addario flatwounds, now It can sing if you want or with the neck pu only it nails the motown sound and a kind of uprighty sound thanks to the hollow body If you finger picked right on the fretboard! The bass was made in the 60's in Italy, I think earlier than [b]1965[/b], but around that time for sure.
    I used to use It in acoustic group with flat wounds on it. I proudly can say It sounds fantastic. :)

    check this site aswell: [url="http://www.fetishguitars.com/html/eko/index/barracuda.html"]http://www.fetishguitars.com/html/eko/index/barracuda.html[/url]

    If you have any questions just drop me a line: [email protected] or send a message through the forum.

    I'm looking for [b]??? pounds[/b] for It, but may consider sensible offers!

    [b]Here's the pics:[/b]

  4. Hi guys! I'm just testing the waters with this as I'm not on the Island until the July.

    Here we go. I have an [color="#000000"][b]EKO Barracuda Bass[/b][/color] 4 string, full size all maple semi-hollow body, 4 position pick-up selector, chromed tail piece, fully adjustable bridge, Double T Bar neck.

    pics coming soon as my friend is gigging with it, he use It in acoustic group with flat wounds on it. I proudly can say It sounds fantastic.

    Until I post some pics of the bass, here are some pics about another one which is identical tomine except the color/finish! :rolleyes: Mine is sunburst. :)

    I consider sensible offers for it! Welcome any comments.

  5. Hey! It's a beauty mate :lol: . Maybe I'm wrong but... actually It's a Warwick Corvette Proline, not a Corvette Standard, which is came with active electronics as a standard. It has a 2 piece flamed maple body instead of bubinga and the neck is not wenge but ovangkol :). So I think It's a bit more 'edgy' than the Standard. :rolleyes:

    BUMP!

  6. Whoa mate It's a Hungarian Masterpiece!!! They're unique, handmade instrument and It was awarded to the "best design" price If I remember right... :)
    Anyway they really worth the price, they're goes 500-600.000 HUF which is around 1700-2000 quids used/new and they don't really drop off their price 'cause they're made for order as I learned not long ago

    Good luck with the sale

    BUMP! :rolleyes:

  7. [quote name='rockinbassman' post='227548' date='Jun 26 2008, 05:55 PM']I have been mainly using my new KSD Jazz with EBS pre, so this might be up for grabs.
    Looking to trade for a 5 string of some kind... or maybe a precision!
    In good condition, but it is used, not mint.[/quote]

    Ouch, what a nice jazz. :)
    How much are you looking for?
