hillbilly deluxe Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 This.Italia Modulus Tipo 3.It plays well enough,but it sounded very weak,then one of the lipstick pickups died (it had 4) My wife bought me it for my first T.V appearance.I tried to get some assistance from Italia/JHS,and Trevor Wilkinson,but they all just passed me arround,so,i whacked in a cheap pickup and it sounds MUCH better.Just need to get a scratch plate made.

OutToPlayJazz Posted March 17, 2010 Share Posted March 17, 2010 Luckily all the basses & double basses I own are very nice, but there is one lurking around that I rebuilt a while ago... At first you see a white Precision with a bit of "mojo" to it... Then you look at the headstock... AAARRRGGGH!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EdwardHimself Posted March 23, 2010 Share Posted March 23, 2010 Here we go then: [attachment=45433:P1010694.JPG] I did a bit of a muck up of the paintjob to be honest. What i can't stand is that i just didn't buy a bass because it would have been a lot bloody better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks okay in the photo but awful in real life. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
