It has a certain charm but the pups don't do it for me. They look like fishing weights to me, they just need a couple of swivels either side. Sorry.

It's certainly unusual, but the combination of very traditional elements with the more 'out there' stuff doesn't quite work, imho. Kind of like a Morris Minor with a modern roof-rack box on top... OK, crap analogy... oh look, it's time for my meds... :crazy:

A plain black pickguard would certainly improve matters - the existing one is truly horrible. Then lose the bridge ashtray and hope there's a funky bridge under there. That would help, too. And basses should [i]never [/i]be grey or silver, imho.

Apart from that though, it's bloody brilliant! :lol:[size=4] ;)[/size]

I like it! But it does look quite 'conventional' to me.

I say that as someone who loves, for example, traditonal Precision and Jazz basses... but not because of how they look ('cos let's face it, they all look the same - there, I said it! :P) but because of how they [u]sound[/u].

There are more unusual and beautiful basses out there, to my taste, but it's all in the eye of the beholder, innit :)
