Norrie122 Posted October 3, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Immo Posted October 3, 2011 Share Posted October 3, 2011 Re-start playing or sell it to me - both decisions would be wise! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soliloquy Posted October 4, 2011 Share 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 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scojack Posted October 6, 2011 Share 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.

GeeCee Posted October 7, 2011 Share Posted October 7, 2011 Curious as to what the controls are? Not the typical Pangborn set-up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
