Lindo Sahara acoustic bass

[maxmckee]

Has anyone ever tried out one of these basses? They look really cool but there’s nothing much more info about them.

thanks Max

Anyone?

Short-scale, narrow body depth...won't be as loud as a jumbo-body acoustic if you're buying it to play unplugged.

The Luminlay markers are nice.

I like the 12th-fret marker, too.

Other than that...

Never heard of them, but looking at the web site I rather like their designs. Definitely need amplification though.

That is cool, but the solid-body Sahara is even cooler: https://lindoguitars.com/product/lindo-sahara-electric-bass-guitar/

Actually I just really like the neck, can I buy just the neck?

You prefer the pink one, @pete.young?

I do quite like them, but the 5er they have is boring by comparison.

They are certainly an acquired taste. Their office is just out of Bristol on the Bath Road. I've been tempted to pop in sometime but it never seems to be the right time.
