Guest MoJo Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Don't forget the 'central fir beams'. You only normally get those in high end Scandinavian chalets Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Dodgy comedy translation aside, that's a really striking-looking and interestingly put together bass, imo. Most of these old Eastern Bloc things tend to look like agricultural folk-art, but I really like that. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beer of the Bass Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Between the laminated body and giant headstock logo, it's got an interesting aesthetic! I like the look of it, though I'm not sure I'd like to put much confidence in the Ukrainian postal service at the moment... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
itsmedunc Posted April 22, 2014 Share Posted April 22, 2014 Classic quotes "manufactured by the Bulgarian company DM -clone -Furniture" and "For some reason it's a [b]pretty rare[/b] sight" !!!! Great sales patter too, "hefty weight with a quite thick neck". That would seal the deal for me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
