Bass Labs hmmmnn [/quote]You probably need a spanner to play that thing. Oh my god! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
charic Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 [quote name='ZenBasses' timestamp='1358034317' post='1932297'] [/quote] It's two 4 string basses in one. One fretted, one fretless. Looks nice enough to me, I'd give it a go but I'm not a huge fan of fretless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaydentaku Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Maybe it has. It does look like it could do with a stuffed squirrel on the headstock. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leonard Smalls Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Can't be doing with Bongos. Or Foderas. Or Hofner violin basses. Out of those, at least a Fodera plays well; I've had tea chest basses that play better than a Bongo! But then I've got a Wal, and a pointy headstocked Parker...

MoonBassAlpha Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 Guild B301/302 is a quirky looking thing, it just isn't harmonious in design at all. I had one for years and never warmed to the shape. The same with the Shergold Marathon, it was never quite as nice looking as I WANTED it to be! Just an unimaginative body shape.

[/quote] IIRC that particular bass actually belongs to a member here. While it's possible to have a laugh poking fun at what we might consider the less attractive instruments, I think actually singling out a particular individual's bass for abuse is a bit too far...

BassTractor Posted January 15, 2013 Share Posted January 15, 2013 [quote name='jaydentaku' timestamp='1358157135' post='1933796'] [/quote] I don't like it, and find it overtly coffee table style, which is not me, BUT if that is after one's taste, I think it at least is rather balanced designwise, and at peace with itself when held vertically. It does get a bit mid-heavy when held in playing position though. [quote name='Rick's Fine '52' timestamp='1358274876' post='1936166'] [/quote] No need to phone anyone. I already have an appointment with a range of therapists from before. I like this a lot. It draws from at least four design styles and ideals, and is not my taste by far, BUT at least it doesn't take itself so seriously, and is quite liberating in that respect, in my humblest of opinions of course. I'd be happy playing this in front of an audience, if I could play. best, bert Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
