cLepto-bass Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 Wow! What a beaut! I have never seen one of these before. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsixties Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Isn't cool? ^_^ I guess there's only a few in Europe so the retail price was 4300 EUR and the street price 3600, no many room to see one in every bass player gear. Jack Lawrence of the Raconteurs plays one of these in his parallel band "Dead Weather". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cat Burrito Posted March 5, 2010 Share Posted March 5, 2010 I didn't know these were 34" scale. I nearly bought one a couple of months ago but could only find short scale Gretsch basses. Sadly I no longer have the funds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jsixties Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 Yes, it's a normal scale bass mate. As user of many hollowbody short scale basses in the past I think there's a HUGE difference in terms of tone, it's deeper and fuller in the 34''.

jsixties Posted March 5, 2010 Author Share Posted March 5, 2010 It's simply amazing how it looks but believe me when I tell you that the best in this bass is the sound, go imagine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
molan Posted March 6, 2010 Share Posted March 6, 2010 Wow - always quite fancied a White Falcon 6 string (in the days when I sometimes played them). Never knew they made a bass version! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Marlin Posted March 15, 2010 Share Posted March 15, 2010 If I hadn't just bought my Gretsch DuoJet (1957), I'd have ripped your arm off. I also have a Gretsch Black Pheonix, this would look stunning next to that! I have Grestch GAS - bad. If you've not sold it next week, I might be tempted to smash my piggy bank......
