Man fights off attacker with a bass

[dkelley]

AWESOME!

What is that bass anyhow? looking at the headstock, I'd actually seriously think it's one of the chinese ones.... or possibly a peavey import. Was trying to identify the shape of the headstock...

I know. The whole time I'm waiting for them to mention the brand, or show it. Then I realized 99% of the people watching the news didn't care.

If he's not, he better be soon... and mods please consider opening a new forum: Basses in Self-Defense.

Good call! The bass can be a significant dissuader. You have no idea how many women, the kind you don’t want to take home to mom, went after the guitarist and singers instead of me..

 

[rmayer]

Think about how much more effective the bass would have been if it only had a Tort pickguard. Better balance.

 

[Ostie]

Weight?

Please Applaud This Humble Man Who Fought Off Knife-Wielding Home Invaders With A Bass Guitar

You’re welcome.

And that's why it is called an "axe"

Nut width?

The would-be attackers were probably driving away going, "I wonder if he knows the theme from Seinfeld?"

Best bass for denting metal?

Well played!

Hopefully it was poly. Blood wipes right off of poly.

It's a Cort. In the video you can read the logo. Hence the cheapness, not even a real P bass.

But as has been shown, Cort basses are pretty sturdy.

If the guy had a Warwick, those thieves would be pushing up daisies.

The sound of wood (whack!!!)

kk, thx! yea I thought that headstock looked familiar.

So there actually is a good use for a cheap bass after all.

They left Glarry eyed.

I've often thought that dents and scratches on a bass only really make sense if there's a good story behind each one (I used a belt sander is not a good story). This is a perfect example of a good scratch and dent story.

Which bass is best for self-defense?

Cort for the win!
