I had a ‘76 P as my main bass for years. It was okay but having bought other things since which are much better, I’d say they aren’t worth the £ s that people now ask for them.
Theres no mystic about the 70’s, after all that’s the CBS era.
Good one, always fancied one, never bought one. There usually quite heavy beasts, how’s this one? I think perhaps a black scratch plate is in order, that tort would do my head in and I like tort!
Great free bass. A friend had a one and I recall being told that the downside to the aluminium neck was that the frets were integral and therefore not renewable if they got it worn down.
That’s an awful lot of guitars and basses! I wonder if they will be able to sustain that level of production. Are there enough people out there to buy them all? I won’t be one of them.
The bizarre “Jetson” shapes look like something a kid might knock up in woodwork class at school. There’s a reason most guitars have curvy shapes, they fit the human body and help balance the hang.
Superb. Those builders in the Czech Republic certainly know a thing or two about building instruments. Makes me regret selling my, much humbler, less pretty, Rebop.
I have a SpectorSpectorcore 5 (which is for sale on here) which comes from the same factory as the Legend. Absolutely excellent, only selling mine as I’ve switched to EUB.
You could try joining a choir, rock choir for preference and sing with others, probably in parts. It will get you used to it, improve your technique and probably enjoy it at the same time.
