Double Bass Blast cult

I read this thread at the start of the year and thought 'shag... poor dude'
Im in Australia and two years ago i was gonna buy one too. ..gonna
For what its worth ive played one and it was phenomenal, but hes taken you for a ride and that's shaged up.
Reason im here now is that he just posted a picture of a custom built guitar on Instagram and has the audacity to say in the description 'Get yours here'
Keep us updated on how it goes for sure dude. And for what its worth theres not enough Dbass players in AUS so if you want, hit us up on facebook - Jackson S Collins.

Hope you get your bass soon.

@Slap bass Lucas did you get any response from him when you told him you were done waiting?
If you haven’t heard a thing, I think blasting his social media accounts is warranted. I think he advertised something like #getyoursnow - I’d say - so by now you mean when you get around to it? He needs to be exposed for taking your - what $2,000.00 - and 2 years later nothing.
 
You have to realize that revenge recommendations put Lucas in a bad position. He has already paid for most or all of the instrument. As long as he pursues this in a legal and ethical manner, there is still a chance it could get peacefully resolved. The minute he resorts to legal action or a smear campaign, he has surely forfeited that money.

Or maybe he just simply wants to maintain the ethical high road in this dispute. Plenty of people would rather lose money and keep their integrity, than win a settlement with despicable acts.
 
I’ve been busy with my job so I haven’t been available during business hours... but I’m in contact with someone who’s in the same boat and the lawyer said it’s a waste of time.... but he got ahold of jason and his is supposed to be done this week

And I do believe in taking the moral high road. If I ended up in a legal battle it would bite me in the ass
 
If you ended up in a legal battle it would probably turn class action - sounds like there are so many in same situation with Blast Cult.
I get taking the high road - at the same time - if Jason isn’t held accountable the cycle will continue. I have regret for not holding him accountable years ago.
