Did they make more than one of the bass in the picture? If not I played it at NAMM a few years back!
Oh and whats a blastcult? The bass? |

So all King basses suddenly become collectors items. A bit like the vintage Kings that I prefer... well, a bit.

I just got a new custom Blast Cult...best live bass I've ever owned.

| | | | KDB player from Canada Hey everyone,
Cam here from Saskatoon, SK. Canada. I own Tiger King #20, a blue-black sunburst purchased in January 2006. Great and durable - bass has been through a LOT and is still going. Its a bit of a battle to keep it properly humidified but that is to be expected in this part of our country.
