I'm not saying it's "ugly," I just don't get it.

 

[excane]

Ehh. It's about in the same class as the Big Al bass.

 

[ashtray9]

It would be fantastic in a Kanye West tribute band.

 

[ScottB.]

I would play that

 

[Floridabwoy]

or an 80's cover band

That SG looks rad, though.

I'd rock it... the women would like it. The sg is really cool though, except the back (it freaks me out.)

 

[superbassman2000]

it reminds me of those new flea basses


the SG is sweet though--i'd almost like to buy it

 

[basschrs]

Looks sort of like the new flea basses.

Which I also think look like crap.

What is this, the 1990's Fisher-Price J-bass?

This may be seen as an ugly bass thread guys - keep it polite.

 

[stflbn]

Do-it-yourself FleaBass IMHO. Probably much higher quality than the Flea's though.

perhaps it is just an unnattractive bass?

Didn't neon go out in the mid eighties?

 

[Illbay]

... why would you do that?

There are those here who will wonder what you're talking about, and swear that's the coolest paint-job they've ever seen.

There's just no accounting for taste.

It looks like it's under a black light.

......uuhhhh, anyone remember them?

from here on out there will be no more ugly bass threads tolerated in the bass forums, unless you are posting about your own instrument.

too many folks participate here with too diverse a set of instruments for these kinds of threads to end up doing anything but pissing people off.

interesting thing - the folks with experience, who gig and who are in general serious about bass usually don't waste their talkbass time posting about basses they don't own, talking about how they find someone else's instrument to be ugly . something to emulate, folks.

so if you want to talk about an ugly bass, make sure it's one of your own, or it will be deleted.

It's just the rules.

I think it's got character... I wouldn't play it though.... I don't really like J's.

I agree ... that's why I edited my original post. If you like it, cool ... I just don't get it.
