I acquired this 1965-1970 Baldwin a few months ago. It replaces one that was stolen about 40 years ago; same color, too! |

I've also added a Silverburst Casady to the arsenal for D/Drop C tuning.

Geordie Walker is one of my guitar heroes! Vastly underrated. Love Killing Joke and can't wait to see them in May. |

When I had the bridge mounted flush like it was "supposed to be", I had my saddle height maxed and it was still unplayably low!

In the 80s.....Geordie kind of stole joy divisions guitar sound and took it to the next level. |

| | | Jerry Scheff's boy playing on a Star Bass. Just thought you'd like to see it. Most of the time you see him playing his father's signature model Lackland. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-Ppgh1Fb5Gg

Warwick & Framus Social Media | | | | | The Pro Series Star Bass has been discontinued, in favor of the Rockbass Star Bass. Retail pricing on the Rockbass Star Bass is about $700-$800 less than the Pro Series. We've spent quite a bit of time with our facility in China to match the quality, at a more desireable price point. Please let me know if you've got any questions. Thanks! |

It may increase sales.
Just a thought.
