Why not keep it nice and diverse like this [/quote] Exactly mate. Exactly. I mean, just think of the name, Beast. Beast. You know that means it's gonna have awesome tone, all the time. Beast. There there's the classic P pickups, pre-amp for divirsity, all the frets you could want, ebony and pearl for the fancy guys, and classic black for the workmen gigging in bars. Absolutely perfect. Aerodynamic too! [size=1]*TBQH, I love the shape, one of the 'ol "if money were no object/lotto" basses is a custom BC Rich Beast.*[/size] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PlungerModerno Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Seriously guys... this might remind you of a bass but it's obviously someone's idea of a novelty custom build. You call that a bass? That's not a bass. This is a bass: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Evil Undead Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 Exactly. The one in the OP only has 4 strings. Cheap tat. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fat Rich Posted August 13, 2012 Share Posted August 13, 2012 [quote name='waynepunkdude' timestamp='1342622869' post='1738052'] I've never seen anything like it before. [/quote] It's amazing isn't it? The way it fades from dark chocolate brown through red to a golden yellow with the grain of the wood showing though. It's called Tobacco Sunburst, you could probably find someone to refinish all your basses like this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lojo Posted August 20, 2012 Share Posted August 20, 2012 It's rarely known but they also made a bass named "precision", but hardly anyone uses them these days because they are basic and can't cover a wide range of styles Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
