OK, just got to show my herd of bottom boys . Each one has its own personality and speaks differently.

is that what they are ?? i have never seen any like this before... i guess the fret markers give it away!

I love all those old japanese surfur guitars. Real nice collection.

How do they sound??

Thanks! Teisco EB200
They all sound different from one another.
I like the honk on the gray one the best.
Cuts through, with plenty of lowend too.. but not too much.
 
The thing that I love most about your last 3 posts is your total enthusiam!

That's a nice looking Taurus. I always thought that upper horn on those looked a bit .... how do I put it...."engorged", but the Neck Through is especially nice. I think the slightly aged patina works. I dont know if I'd clean it up.


That friend of yours deserves a big hi 5 too.

Thanks for sharing!

Hi there, thanks for the compliment and im glad you like the basses! I'm getting used to the Aesthetics of the bass, and the upper horn is growing on me. The bass has since been named Ryta (Rita) - inkeeping with the R theme i have going on.

I'll probably clean it up to give it abit of Love and TLC, as i take alot of pride in my bass collection! :bassist:
 
I am about to buy this bass. It is Japan stuff. But I cannot read the head stock and I don't get familair with it. It should be very vintage one. Do you have any ideas what the bass is?
