MattyB90 Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 I think EPS's F series is prety damn ugly yet somehow very popular. It just has random cuts into it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Burpster Posted June 10, 2007 Share Posted June 10, 2007 Or "Wrongo" is it not all a matter of taste ? Personally I dont think that 1st one is that ugly! I'd rather have that around my neck that a new ESP 'dark lord'....... But then I'm not a screaming banshee from Satans own bowels, riding the road to self mutilation....... Just as well I guess....!

That pointy bass is interesting art - but nowhere near enough strings for prog! J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdwardHimself Posted June 15, 2007 Share Posted June 15, 2007 [quote name='Paul_C' post='15220' date='Jun 10 2007, 07:37 PM'] [/quote] I don't think it's that bad, i must admit i do look at almost all warwicks from the headstock and think "oh that's nice" and then i see the body And im just like "how dissapointing" but i hardly think they could be called the ugliest bass in the world and to the guy who said the F series were ugly. I think they look good, metal, but not over the top bc-rich like. I personally hate those basses with the massive top horn without any cutaway, i just think it completly ruins it and i don't see the point in it at all. But they seem to be massively popular as really expensive custom or self build basses. I just wouldn't spend so much money on such a crap looking bass, IMO. but each to his own.
