JJW Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I don't think so, I think it would be rather embarrassing for anything except a joke.

discreet Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 At least Daisy Rock are playable. And far less appalling than some of the car-crash basses I've seen on the Bay. In fact I think it would go quite well with my new blonde wig and pink tutu.... er no, wait... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unless I was forced to choose at gun point between one of those and one of those pointy black Gothy things, in which case I'd be wearing the Daisy Rock.

Annoying Twit Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 (edited) Looking at the Daisy Rock site, it appears that this bass has been discontinued. Their guitars and basses mostly seem to be only available in spangly finishes now. Which IMHO is a rather odd business decision. Isn't Daisy Rock a sub-brand of Cort? EDIT: They used to be part of Schecter, but have been independent for over ten years now.

andytoad Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 I for one love it. Honestly, I could come out with far less bruises from some of the pubs I play with that. It would terrify the punters! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I like the colour but it's otherwise not very adventurous. It's a massive shame they discontinued the Stardust Elite: I think that's a great-looking bass - but then I'm lacking a shortscale set-neck & that would fit the bill! Jon.

Truckstop Posted December 27, 2014 Share Posted December 27, 2014 Daisy Rock basses are totally ok to play! Good necks and light but had weird balance on the strap and underwhelming pickups. No more disgusting than relic'd guitars or other novelty shaped instruments. Truckstop Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

itsmedunc Posted January 6, 2015 Share Posted January 6, 2015 (edited) I mentioned this bass to a young lass who I know who plays bass (as so does her father before her, a mate of mine). Unfortunately it was when I'd had a few at New Year. One thing led to another and through my drunken ramblings she misunderstood what I was saying. I fear I may now be a sexist misogynist barsteward. Amongst other things... I only see her at New Year so hopefully she may have calmed down by 2016. My only saving grace is that her father is what she thinks I am. Thanks for ammo mate.
