odub Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 Has anyone got any opinions on Riverside basses? [url="http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Riverside-Silent-Fretless-Bass_W0QQitemZ140125538520QQihZ004QQcategoryZ22966QQrdZ1QQcmdZViewItem"]http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Riverside-Silent-Fre...1QQcmdZViewItem[/url] Long story short, I'm being sent to Bermuda in 2 weeks with work for 6 weeks and I don't want to be without an instrument. So something cheap and light and well, not total rubbish is in order. Apparently it’s way too expensive over there to consider buying, though you can get to the US for a hundred quid and 2 hours flight. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kiwi Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 I wonder if anyone's ever asked him for sound clips? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think I'll bother! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But not much to do there: One or two cinemas, a nightclub. 6 weeks is a long time to spend locked up in an apartment because it’s either 50 degrees outside or midst hurricane. I’m not really complaining! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul, the Posted June 11, 2007 Share Posted June 11, 2007 As a bit of a throwback hippie, I think the flower's kind of sweet. But I don't like the funny shaped body. The bass seems a bit unsure of itself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Y'know, for probably less than £200 you could pick up an Aria Sinsonido on eBay or similar. Might well be a better bet. Just a thought.

I think my new plan is to shuttle over to New York and buy something whilst I'm there and take my chances getting it back into the UK in one piece.
