My Tanglewood acoustic bass has some very tasteful gold twiddly knobs on it... chavvy it most definitely ain't I've never seen a chav playing a musical instrument... they're too busy "consuming" awful music on their MP3 enabled phones... and upsetting everybody else cos they're too cheap to use headphones...

kevbass Posted August 31, 2008 Share Posted August 31, 2008 Headstock snobbery, i.e those who wont touch a bass if it has a cheap name on the headstock. Pointy Basses, just a no no for me.
