  2. [quote name='skankdelvar' post='387049' date='Jan 21 2009, 12:40 AM']If it makes you feel any better... in the early 80's at Alaska St Studios I saw him wearing frankly laughable diamond-pattern parachute trousers. He looked like a trainee salad chef on acid. Everybody tiptoeing round him trying not to giggle. Touch of the Weller's, methinks.[/quote] MB1. Was he not originally in a Mod type Band called The Chords?...Sorry!just noticed the previous post by the purple blob! Strewth!....... it were the Truth!... That Song off the clip is Stone Fox Chase....the theme to the Old Grey Whistle Test!
  3. [quote name='Spoombung' post='389848' date='Jan 23 2009, 05:47 PM']But you've got it the wrong way round. All I've done is design the lower horn how it [i]should[/i] be - in honour of the human body, in honour of the player. The little, fashionably compromised lower horn we get on most basses these days is the 'impractical' one! It serves no purpose.[/quote] MB1. The Buzzard bass Warwick or Status ....John Entwistle used to use the lower horn to hang the basses on his home bar rail! ...are you prepared to bend your lower horn?....
  4. MB1. Cant pick any i'm afraid! Cant help thinking that lower horn is both totally impractical,possibly sexually Offensive,and probably more trouble than its worth!... custom case required! Just a thought... but Dont the upper and lower horns affect Bass and treble response? However!....leave me out of this.....Im not paying for it !
  5. MB1. If this had been the MK500 210 COMBO!..alas tis not!..Ave a BUMP though!
  6. [quote name='warwickhunt' post='388179' date='Jan 22 2009, 07:50 AM']How long would it have taken the guy to inlay the 'shell'? That alone even at minimum wage would account for a fair slice of cash, the skeleton of the bass may be a brandless BO average bass but at £300 it can't be accused of being too expensive. Ultimately if it plays like a pice of sh*t then it is a piece of sh*t but were I after something to stand out from the crowd I'd give it a second look.[/quote] MB1. Cant Dispute it stands out! but If it is Antonatsai he does do them cheaper than this!.

I don't like Motown but Christ was James Jamerson good. I don't like Iron Maiden but Steve Harris is amazing. I ain't fan of Reggae, but I know who Aston Barrett is.[/quote] MB1. +1000....
