Mr. Foxen Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 (edited) I recall him waxing lyrical over how much he liked the look of the one he dropped at the House of Bass.

pbass67 Posted April 6, 2011 Share Posted April 6, 2011 And I was the reason Wayne had it in his possession. I still love it, and hopefully fitting a K&K pickup tomorrow. That ebay one looked ok until I saw the crack in the neck. . .shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3below Posted April 8, 2011 Share Posted April 8, 2011 Also have one, bought new circa 1980 - they were some of the first affordable acoustic basses at the time. Still has the original Roto tru bass strings, not a bad sound acoustically if quiet. Fitted a clip on Jazz bass pickup in the soundhole and its rather nice amplified. The neck is huge and solid on mine - that one must have had some drop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
