LiamPodmore Posted October 13, 2011 Share Posted October 13, 2011 [quote name='apa' timestamp='1318413745' post='1401717'] I think before anyone critisises this bass think back to the law of the jungle......... Your walking through the trees and come across a camp where there is a hut twice as ugly and twice the size of yours with a bed twice as ugly and twice the size of yours with a club resting against it twice as ugly and twice the size of yours. Then you hear a distant THUD....THUD....THUD.... of footsteps twice as loud and twice as ugly as yours. What do you do? stop and take the p*ss?? Just a thought A [/quote] Well if the dozy tw*t has left his club outside his front door, and walked off as well, he's obviously lacking in brain capacity, so i would confuse him with large words such as discombobulated (What the hell does that actually mean, if its real?) until he gets angry and accidentally runs off a nearby cliff, then i would make his hut look better and live in it. Back on topic, there are some fugly basses in this thread, i mean really f*ck ugly... Liam Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This really is the tattiest, most monstrous bass you could possibly have ever seen in your life: In fact I use it to play "gears of war" by megadeth since it looks like it's been hit by smart bombs and precision guided armaments.

muttley Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 Oh dear.... But use your hand to only view one half of the bass. Each half looks OK on its own, it's only when they are joined together that it becomes an abomination. Design by committee? The headstock was clearly designed by another committee though..

BigBeatNut Posted October 14, 2011 Share Posted October 14, 2011 This thread just demonstrates how subjective the subject is. There's some truly h-uggly basses here we all agree on and some that severely divide opinion. I love the warwick dolphin, infinity and starbass, but dislike nearly everything else they make ... the headstock detracts even from the ones I like. Couple of pet hates that are probably uniquely me. I mean ... what were they thinking of with that top horn ? And this ... I mean ... the body shape isn't even beginning to happen. If anyone is inclined to take offence ... please don't. I'll happily post pics of basses I love and/or own for you to take the p*** out of.

[/quote] That is a very flattering picture, it is fairly gouged here and there, and has big stanley knife cuts in the front, from trimming of bits to go on it, it seemed pointless not to use it as its own worktop really.
