FlatEric Posted February 7, 2012 Posted February 7, 2012 Hi. I have asked on here before but I am going to have one last go. Has [i]anyone [/i]ever heard of a bass maker called Parkinson, from Leigh, which I guess is the one in Lancs. Looks like this: [url="http://flatericbassandguitar.blogspot.com/2010/08/parkinson-bass-leigh-rare-as.html"]http://flatericbassa...gh-rare-as.html[/url] The Brown one, 080, is now owned by someone who has contacted me and both of us have had no luck finding [i]anything!!!!!!!!!!!!! [/i] Bit of a review on mine: [url="http://flatericbassandguitar.blogspot.com/2011/04/parkinson-bass-bit-of-surprise.html"]http://flatericbassa...f-surprise.html[/url] My latest thoughts are - he was a bass player - made one in 1972 and one in 1980???? Any help would be great. Cheers. Quote

cocco Posted February 11, 2012 Posted February 11, 2012 I'd love to have any answers, they both look pretty cool. If you find anything I'd be interested to know. Quote
