alyctes Posted June 2, 2019 Share Posted June 2, 2019 Might be crap, might be a rarity, might be both. Doesn't immediately look appalling. https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Schmucker-Wotan-E-Bass-fur-Liebhaber/173921357101?hash=item287e854d2d:g:YvIAAOSwccFc9BKS 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
2x18 Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Looks like a late 70's Wotan Shark Bass --made in Japan --supposedly good quality! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oopsdabassist Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 The wood on those side wings reminds me of 1970's school desks..doesn't bode well for me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 Very interested in this. At first glance I thought it looked like a Kasuga build, did a bit of Googling & there appears to be the suggestion this was designed by French luthier Kamel Chenouay - whose thorougly bizarre 80s Apex guitars are well-known to be Kasuga products. Been hankering after a P/P for a very long time and have some quite worrying GAS for this. Probably won't go for it (no band, no room) but you never know... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Dare Posted June 3, 2019 Share Posted June 3, 2019 It's worth the current price for the pickups and bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quite literally, in fact - thanks for your kind (and timely) advice... 13 hours ago, Dan Dare said: It's worth the current price for the pickups and bridge. Don't know what the pickups are, but they're not DiMarzios. If you Google Wotan Shark bass though, some of them do have Model Ps - like a lot of Kasugas.
