basskit_case Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Looking at DV247 and found this: http://www.dv247.com/musical-instruments/jandd-uk-bm1r-4-string-bass-ukulele-natural--214222 Cannot find a great deal about it, but it looks like we have another cut price bass ukulele option. Not sure I like the look of it, borrows a little too much from the low-end eleuke solid body electric ukuleles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
James Nada Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) I quite like the look of that. The holes are a bit 60s Ampeg 4 stringer. Edited April 18, 2015 by James Nada Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Price seems good too. :glances meaningfully at piggybank: Edited April 18, 2015 by alyctes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer of the Bass Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 Is it really a bass uke, or is it some sort of error in the title? The strings and tuners look an awful lot like a standard uke. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alyctes Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 I can't see a scale length. Did I miss it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alyctes Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 (edited) Search for UK-BM1R produced this page: [url="http://www.worldsoundmusic.cn/products_detail/&productId=538ebe37-ca33-4ae5-949d-05c0f7951cfc.html"]http://www.worldsoun...c0f7951cfc.html[/url] and this one: http://www.j-guitar.com/product_id525707.html I think dv247 have put up the wrong pic. Shame... Edited April 18, 2015 by alyctes Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Annoying Twit Posted April 18, 2015 Share Posted April 18, 2015 The assumedly real photo does look quite nice, IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tauzero Posted April 23, 2015 Share Posted April 23, 2015 The DV247 description says it's a slim;line solid mahogany body, rather than the sapele hollow body of the other one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
