EASTWOOD BASSES?

[minkey1980]

Just been looking on the Evil BAY and seen a great looking Gretsh white falcoln bass copy made by Eastwood. The lad wants £400 but I think you can buy them new for £450 so not too interested in this one, but they do look fantastic.

Only worry is that I'm a fickle type and know this would never command any demand next time round so theres no real value in the brand.

Just wondered what people thought of them if they had tried them out? I did have a Ibanez artcore semi bass but it was too much 'twang; and not enough 'umph'.....let me know (link below);

I'd seen the bass too. I love the look of a few of the Eastwoods but if you use the search function here on Basschat you'll see the quality can be quite variable. That one is also short scale which put me off
