Marc S Posted September 15, 2016 Share Posted September 15, 2016 Surprised this hasn't sold. It really does look great. Fab colour. Like the decal too - great sense of humour Sound clips sound good too. I don't need another bass, but if I was after a good gigging bass - I'd have this Bump, just cos it's a fab looking instrument GLWTS Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
