Indeed !

Have you ever played one ? This is real crap, sorry but these Japanese plywood basses are not good instruments at all, just like the Morris and other atrocities made in the seventies. It's not because it's old that it's good. I'm almost 52 and started on these basses that were awful but affordable when you are a student. Thanks to them, I now have a powerful left hand (and fingers) and can play double bass easily. So for that point I should say they were good, but the action was so high, the pickups so bad and noisy and the weight so heavy that telling these basses are good is proving that you never played one. When I bought my first real bass something like 5 years later, a second hand 1972 Fender P-Bass, I asked myself how could I have been able to play such an "instrument"...

It's an old Maya or crap like this, better avoid this.

Traded two basses for one (and some money for me) with (the other) Tony. The Alpher was as described and it was a real pleasure to deal with Antonio. The bass was very well packed and shipped very quickly. Once the trade was definitely agreed, everything went fast and perfect, but not furious. 😎 You can deal with him in total confidence, there won't be any problem. Enjoy the Shuker and the Bassline !

Yes, I bought one of these ridiculously low prices Chinese crap to give it a try and really throw it in the fire after making my own London Calling remake. And it brokes into pieces within seconds. Didn't try to cook anything as it was really stinking, but I had some dead wood from the garden to burn, so I made a joy fire. So don't try this at home.

These are NOT instruments, but barbecue wood. So start playing it and then you'll start the fire with it.

Not really a new concept, a French luthier called Favino, who made over than 10 guitars for the Brassens (just because he had a powerful playing and destroyed them the way Django did), has even one double guitar in his catalogue and sold a few to some renowned artists : http://www.favino.com/index.php?choix=cata-verso# But a bass plus a guitar based on the same body is quite stupid...

Howie bought a bass off me. Very fast payment and very kind person to deal with. The hiccups he mentioned in the feedback he left for me are not his fault at all, but the bank who transferred the money in Euros (and took fee) on my Pounds bank account just because my physical address is overseas... Howie even proposed to refund the fee, but I refused because he has not to pay for a(nother) bank money making way (and this is a simple fact, nothing else). You can deal with him in total confidence.

Not on eBay, but worth mentioned : https://www.bassic.de/kleinanzeigen/glockenklang-heart-rock-i-box-quattro-4-x-10.8190/

Just the perfect pair, even if I'm not a Wal fan anymore for some personal reasons. As a 6 strings bass player, I would say that 4 strings are not enough, but if you can afford one, why not. And they both are wonderfully looking, for sure.
