loudandclear Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 I have to say not normally a fan of coffee tables but actually that is something special , under 8lbs aswell. Quote
Ou7shined Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 Nice but not exactly original... unless you've never seen a Jazz bass dipped in toffee before. Quote

[/quote] Not for me at all I'm afraid, wouldnt give it a second glance in a bass shop, or first glance for that matter, anything remotely woody looking just doesnt do it for me, they always look home made, like someones dad has been busy in the garage with his new router, and destroyed your aunt mabels favourite dining room chair. One mans meat etc..... Quote

JTUK Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 The Sadowsky works, IMO....and this is what he does very well as he has that good eye for styling, IMO. The Dingwall really doesn't as the wood isn't very subtle or precise enough..plus Dingwalls are an aquired tastes aesthetically anyway, so it is just toooooo much..IMV. Quote

flyfisher Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 I'm sure it's a fine example of the luthier's craft but what has it got to do with music? It's a bit like people who'll pay £80,000 for a hand-made shotgun. Absolute stunning examples of workmanship, in both wood and metal, but they don't shoot any better than a plainer example costing just £1,000. Such items are really works of art rather than working tools, and not usually any better suited for the job either. Quote
bigjohn Posted October 10, 2011 Posted October 10, 2011 The only reason I'd pay more than a coupla hundred is so I could sell it on here for more. Quote

Dom in Dorset Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 I'd play it, but I'd be thinking of this one: Quote
Delberthot Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 It looks messy if you know what I mean. There's no contrast between body and hardware and with the pattern of the wood it just looks a bit busy and takes a while to focus on the individual parts Quote

Muzz Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 Nice wood, but it's yet another version of the most-versioned bass shape in the world. If basses were cars, people would still be making Model Ts out of carbon fibre and composites. The Dingwall's much nicer. Quote

Monckyman Posted October 11, 2011 Posted October 11, 2011 All of theses basses look like something Bilbo Baggins might play bass solo versions of stairway to heaven on. Dreadful. That is all. IMO Quote
