Ashdown Basses?! Woo!

Apparently these are prototypes and a couple of niggles to be sorted before namm.

Prices will be in and around Skyline Prices.

Think if they do the P in LPB with a matching head, I could be in bother.

Obviously a nod to John Entwistle who was big buddies with Ashdown.

And a short scale Jazz, as well as 34” and 35” 5 string...

Surely the Loadstone basses were also Fender copies but with an even more ugly headstock?

Well...they were sort of fender shaped...and had EMG j pickups...But they had all funky carves and bevels...

The headstock could’ve been better. I think the lack of shape to the bottom of it was an error of judgement for sure.

Yep. That’s a “meh” from me. Shame, as Lakin’s MM + J design was fantastic, now he’s just redesigning the designed. Aside from the unusual string tree position (and I’m just curious wtf they were thinking) there is nothing of interest here for me.
