I have had a lot of basses over the years...lots of Gretchs, fenders, birdsongs, music man, kala, lakland, Ibanez, epiphone, Gibson, etc. I have sold them all and now have been playing live in an 3 piece alt country/American original act. So, Im looking for a bass that fits the look and...

Ba-Bump!

Heres some pics.

Just bought this for use in a acoustic duo-me on bass. Was going for the retro look/sound and just when we were ready to gig the dude up and quit as he said it was too much stress! So, I have no use for this-its sitting in my office with the other gear I purchased. I also had bought a Lakland...

I have played tone of short scales and am always looking for the right tone for the right band. I play in a similar band as yours: Link Removed and I would tell you to use LaBella Tapewound Flats on your bass. Youll love the sound you get. Also, if you get a chance to grab a semi-hollow short...

How is the tone? Is it more akin to an electric bass or a standup? Do you have any sound files?

His playing always struck me as incredibly sloppy. Never could understand the fanboy adulation with his playing. He may be rich, and he may be famous, but that don't always equal talent, folks.

Just bought a bass but would like a good backup. Would you take $650? Cool Bass!
