Who's got my BRC Tele bass?

[Mike]

Just curious. I loved this bass, bought it from David (eubassix) then went to Beedster and through a few forum members. I really miss it. Just hoping it has a good home. Sniff.

I nearly had it.

I salivated over this bass many a time. The wife even sanctioned it's purchase, but alas, common sense got the better of me.

I almost had it too.

How often does this happen? By the time she's so nice that she lets you have it, you feel guilty about wanting it!

[Mike]

Sanctioned it! Hilarious!

This bass, potentially, could have been a right slut!

I seem to recall that there was also a sunburst'n'blocks BRC tele bass knocking about, too.

I loved that.

Wow, never saw that. Any pics in the recesses of your hard drive?

Has anyone ever done one of these with three pups - another at the neck?


MAD.


If I had a wife I'd let her deny me three basses, any more and I'd have to reconsider which is worth having.

Ive got it--Ill try and get some photos up this evening. I put a Bridge cover on it and changed strings since I got it --its a lovely bass with a very thin neck and a great sound.

What a lovely pair ! I do love Tele style basses. Glad to see it's still around. I loved it! Those basslines were superb pickups - what are your thoughts?

I didnt, had a shave as well, best shirt.......

Theres something about tele basses I like--its a lot heavier than the Sting reissue and has a much punchier tone--maybe cause the Sting has flatwounds.The neck is very thin compared to any other teles--I like it a lot.

Just noticed on badasbassplayers.com site that Wymore are no longer making basses/guitars--they had another few left which were tele copies and looked very nice.
