Aaren J Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 My vintage Musicman copy will always have a special place in my heart If only it were a little less destroyed, I'd still be playing it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
karlbbb Posted July 31, 2009 Share Posted July 31, 2009 A played a Vintage Stringray copy the first ever time I played bass. And my first guitar was also a Vintage. I've had two Vintage basses, and will have my third asap. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just wish they did the 5 string in it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemmywinks Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 A little bit reminiscent of a Pedulla too, no bad thing! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Machines Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 The headstock lets those AV's down for me, love the look from there down. I might be able to get one for review actually.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AV4+1 would be ideal as that's what I'm after can't seem to find anything other than the specs around the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
solo4652 Posted August 1, 2009 Share Posted August 1, 2009 My Vintage V4 is a storming P-bass clone - great as a backup or beater bass. Yours for £85.

Still hoping to get one as soon as possible but I need a new laptop first (and looking to buy a MacBook Pro isn't going to leave me with a lot free ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ezbass Posted September 5, 2009 Share Posted September 5, 2009 [quote name='karlbbb' post='557784' date='Aug 1 2009, 01:48 PM']I agree! They also have it in a sunburst too. Can't decide between them.

[/quote] These look interesting to me as they have P bass width necks. An upgrade of the p/ups (Nordstands have my ear at the moment) and maybe a little reshaping of the headstock (it seems a bit bulbous) and that would be good to go. I really like the bridges on these Vintage Advances. That white is sweet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
