Painy Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Love the colour coordination. Back in the late 90s when I bought my first 5 string I was using a Trace Elliot rig so I decided to buy a green bass to match (Yamaha RBX765a). I even went and bought green cables to go with it. 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SICbass Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 I have the Eastwood copy of your Gretsch. I just love that look - but I couldn’t afford the Gretsch. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just love that look - but I couldn’t afford the Gretsch. I have a couple of Eastwood basses & like them a lot. My favourite bass player / influence Sami Yaffa was playing the Orange Eastwood for a while. I wouldn't normally be affording the Gretsch but it was second hand & I had that payout. 😻 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul the Learner Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Congratulations on your new gear! You said in original post that "life's too short" and I agree. I'm mainly an acoustic guitar player, who has always played cheap or second hand instruments. About a year ago, my brother in law was diagnosed with stomach cancer, and it made me think "what am I waiting for?" so I took a trip to that there London and bought a decent Yamaha acoustic guitar from Yamaha's own shop. But now I am slowly and painfully getting to grips with bass playing for a band of older folks, and am loving it. Maybe, one day, I will be able to justify buying some decent bass gear, and be able to post it on Basschat....... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Len_derby Posted September 20, 2020 Share Posted September 20, 2020 Yes, I can heartily recommend orange basses. They bring a smile to everyone’s face. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
