First there was Elephant man, now there's elephant bass, "I am not an animal, I am a bass"
Seriously, who ever dreamt that one up should get his dark glasses checked and trade in the guide dog for a new one. It's seriously UGLY and out of proportion.
At least it looks like someone took more than 2 minutes to design it.
But it tastes like someone took less than two minutes to brew it...In their bath tub
Any 5 or 6 string with less than 19mm spacing. I cannot get used to anything less. I've wanted buy a few basses with 17mm and eventually did, figuring I could get used to it. I was tripping over myself for weeks. Had to get rid of it.
Since a lot of people can't read fine print:
This isn't about bashing gear, it's supposed to be fun. mkay?

Zemaitis: Sounds like an ancient spartan. It'd probably kick me into a bottomless pit.

Or a beer stein, so you can have your berger with beer, hold the nazi.
Or a skin disease as in the heartbreak of Zemaitis.
Sounds like a brand of Deutch beer to me, which is kinda cool. But I must agree their logo is far from being the best out there.

And I just noticed they have a line called "Metro Hybrid"... Damn! I'm almost sure I can't openly say what I think of that name here! Hahaha!
From the top of my head;
Line 6 (do I have to say anything?
)
Peavy (I've had some bad experiences...)
Behringer (I need some kind of solid feel behind my gear...)
Squier (some exceptions, but generally I would never gig a "modern" squier)
Harley Benton (if you're from europe, you will understand ;D)
Hartke (I own one, and I like it somewhat, and it's great price-wise but I'll probably never buy another, I'm past 'em)
Anything that incorporates a digital sampler/reproducer in my signal-path.
There's of course an exception, if I like something I might reconsider, like with the digital stuff, if I sounds nice I might use it, but I'm still generally against digital stuff ;D

I know, but they make basses just like it. As a matter of fact, here y'go.
looks like a Gibson... with a chubby!
Pignose, as if I couldn't smell 'da funk on my own.
Elrick, viking war axe.
Curbow= curve & bow, yikes, sounds like serious neck problems.

F Bass- sounds like F bomb, but for musicians.
Lace- Looks like a 50's sports car, sounds like an old woman's name.
RockBass- Sounds like they were trying too hard to make their stuff look cool
Washburn- For 1st degree burns only, for 2nd degree use cool water, and lightly apply gauze (no ointments, they will cause the blisters to break), and for 3rd degree burns, get medical help immediately!
