JohnFitzgerald Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 The dull thud of Macca never quite did it for me, that's why the old violin bass never quite tugged at the heart strings. Now it does.

thebrig Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Just watched it, and found it fascinating too! Had to turn the volume down though, oh that music! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
warwickhunt Posted September 8, 2012 Share Posted September 8, 2012 Excellent! I've been after either one of these (possibly not the full blown German model) or more likely the SC version, for a while... inspired to look harder now! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fitz666 Posted September 10, 2012 Share Posted September 10, 2012 Nice to watch but the most impressive bit was the guy with the glue bottle. Still wouldn't have one though.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Low End Bee Posted September 14, 2012 Share Posted September 14, 2012 I've always really fancied one of these. Too rich for my wallet though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] I suspect you're right. After all Paul originally bought it because Fenders were too expensive and left handed ones were even more expensive. For years he played other basses and for a long time played a Yamaha. Edited September 14, 2012 by gjones Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
