Have to say I'd really like to hear this bad boy. Pickups look like Gibson, knob array looks like Ibanez - all on a big fat hollow bass.
Intrigue factor = 100%

 

[Avezzano]

me too: big time! And consider that they ONLY build acoustic and hollowbody guitars. For a certain period of time, they built the Rivoli on behalf of Gibson and other guitars and basses for other well respected instrument makers. The Casady, too...!

I imagine there are a lot more brands out there, but what this gal is doing that's impressive is she is tracking down the links and doing searches on each one to verify their existence (or that they used to exist).

I can't believe it took me this long to think of this one:

Thanks! I knew about the amps but not the basses. Link Removed.

And thanks for comments about the website. It started with me trying document my vast knowledge of basses. I thought there was only a few dozen of them. What a fool I am! Since the beginning, finding photos and references to every instrument has been key. It's been very interesting, but requires a level of OCD and GAS!
