They've clearly never heard of Roscoe Beck or his signature basses... 🙄

 

I'm sure a lot of people haven't.  Also, they did say in the video that they'd only just encountered these basses for the first time.  I usually scoff at these sort of claims (seriously sceptical about these so-called "reaction" videos) but I think that true this time.  Personally, I prefer if they do a bit of research on the product and tell us authorative stuff about it rather than chin stroking maybes, but hey if I'm not happy then I can always make my own video about it.

I'm not going to make my own video.

Andertons video up now for those interested

 

 

 

 

These videos, man. You skip to the bit that says 'Let's hear it!' and you're greeted with someone tickling it like they're trying to get it to roll onto its back and purr.

 

Just play the bloody thing, like wot you would if you were in a band and that.

The arbiter of taste has spoken!  This video is invalid!

Damn right it is!

As with anything, I think we need to take anything Andertons says on these as they are the European distributor. Still, Cici and Lee both seem like standup people and I doubt they say anything that isn't true

Mine has arrived! Unfortunately I'm not home and won't be in until late, and out all day tomorrow, so Friday afternoon will be my first chance to give it a thorough going-over.

 

 

Where's your NBD thread then?  Hope the contents arrived intact.

[wingnutkj]

The contents certainly did arrive intact, I've just been rushed off my feet with the pre-Christmas rush. Will try to do one this week. First impressions are very favourable - nice neck, lovely colour, sounds like a bass, but I need to do a bit more of an in-depth comparision between it and my other basses, and maybe even play it with my band if we get our act together.

It’ll be days … you’ve ruined my Christmas by proxy now. You utter basket.
Whilst eating turkey and trying not to be sick, I’ll be thinking “how did @wingnutkj get on with that bass ?”
