Clarky Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 Its part of the vibe of Blast Cult to have some 50/60s wackiness - the round pickups on the bass pictured in OP are double bass pickups, for example. Their brand cheerleader is Lee Rocker (who has a very green DB; see pic below) I kind of like the clown vomit bass but different strokes for different folks .... and - to be clear - their prices are beyond me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jd56hawk Posted November 23, 2021 Share Posted November 23, 2021 (edited) Ridiculous name, but more and more eight-year-old kids are playing bass these days, so... Obviously aimed at spoiled rich kids who tell their parents they want it, and they want it now! Doesn't matter if it's forgotten two or three weeks after it arrives...it's meant to collect dust. Other than that, what do we have...an Ibanez Jet King copy with the Atlansia ARC pickup. Let's not forget, whoever made it suffers from LAMS. Not to mention that's not clown vomit, this is...

According to the urban dictionary, it is "A social group prevalent in Germany, characterized by poor grammar, sweat pants, and a mullet." So, do you think this bloke came up with the clown vomit name? Could explain it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris2112 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Ugly name, ugly colour, ugly bass. I guess you'd have to be a real clown to buy one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Have you been to the paint mixing bit at B&Q? It's a veritable smorgasbord of daft colour names. I shake my head at some of the highfalutin names that some manufacturers use. "Smoked Almond Metallic" - oh get off your high horse, Epiphone, it's gold!

paul_5 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 It's not the worst shape or finish I've ever seen. I reckon colour wise it's closer to bile than vomit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bloke_zero Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 I've played one of their basses and immediately loved it - it was incredibly ugly but felt and sounded great - I think it was oak bodied medium scale with like a P90 style pickup. At 2.5K£ I had to put it back down but it exercised a fascination. I'd say they are built with incredible attention to detail and flare - I can't say it's exactly for me but I have to respect it. They also do a hollow body flying v bass - at least they aren't BORING! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 14 hours ago, Eldon Tyrell said: As it is just the name of the finish, why not just call it "Metal Flake Green Finish"? No need for the clown and his/her vomit 🙂 We wouldn't be talking about it and fewer people would be aware of these basses. It's good marketing - I'd never seen it before & I think it looks great - if I was in the market I'd want to try one. Assuming that price is a typo and it's meant to be £365, that is. 11 hours ago, karlfer said: @Bassassin had the greatest ever, Radioactive Snot Glo, Vorg Rick copy if I remember correctly. Excellent memory! Unfortunately it wasn't my bass, but it'd be a struggle to find a more appropriate name for that particular green/yellow burst! I think @prowla on here has got one, or did at one point. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nige1968 Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Looks more like Robot Phlegm to me. I like the name(s) more than the colour or shape, sadly, but if I was buying on name alone I'd be well up for some clown vomit. Or even rainbow unicorn poo. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted November 24, 2021 Share Posted November 24, 2021 Most colour names are ridiculous. My favourite useless colour name is Sonic Blue. I can't think of a colour less "sonic" than that insipid pastel shade. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
