Norrie122 Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 (edited) Hi, This is my first post. Thought I would show some pics of my Pangborn bass.I don`t know much about it except that I bought it in 1985 from a retailer in Glasgow after hearing Ewen Vernal (ex Deacon Blue) playing it in the shop. I loved the tone and feel of the guitar. I played it for only a year and gave up playing to start my own business in 1986. It has not been played for 25 years and is in mint condition.[attachment=90615:SDC11124.JPG][attachment=90616:SDC11112.JPG][attachment=90617:SDC11137.JPG][attachment=90618:SDC11114.JPG] [attachment=90619:SDC11122.JPG] [attachment=90622:SDC11135.JPG] Edited October 3, 2011 by Norrie122 Quote

Immo Posted October 3, 2011 Posted October 3, 2011 Re-start playing or sell it to me - both decisions would be wise! Quote
charic Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 ..Who was it that was well into Pangborns?! I think it may have been Dr of bass (nick) Quote
Soliloquy Posted October 4, 2011 Posted October 4, 2011 I never forget seeing Mr King planting his head first into a sand dune on the 'Living it up' video. Quote
scojack Posted October 6, 2011 Posted October 6, 2011 Ohhh this takes me back ! It is Nick (DrBass) that likes 'em. He bought my Warlord Custom (Tiger Maple) from me a few years back. Was my gigging bass, man and boy, i miss it so much and regret the day i even thought about flogging it !! This looks slightly later than mine, i never liked that headstock much ....preferred the Alembic Style of the Customs. Nice bass though and bit of a rarity these days. Quote
GeeCee Posted October 7, 2011 Posted October 7, 2011 Curious as to what the controls are? Not the typical Pangborn set-up. Quote
