curlywurly Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I had the good fortune to play a Lindo Jazz and Precision bass at the Bristol Guitar Show the other weekend. Has anyone else tried a Lindo Jazz or Precision bass before? I have a Squier Jazz deluxe and a Fender P bass. I was pleasantly surprised with the quality of the build of these basses. The neck profile on the Jazz and precision was perfect. I was also very impressed with the cosmetics of the guitars, especially for the price! Great value for your money and perfect for beginners and intermediate players!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mornats Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I played their acoustic bass and quite liked it. I work for a travel publisher though... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dom in Dorset Posted October 23, 2012 Share Posted October 23, 2012 I built an a fretless out of spare parts to test a few ideas, I used Jazz pickups from a Lindo "Red Tiger" bass. My intention was to use the "Triggers Broom principal" ie built it with whatever bits come to hand , replacing parts as better ones come available, until all of the original parts are gone. The pickups were a big surprize- superb output and tone, exactly what i was after (slightly higher output than my Fender even with nylon coated strings) I may get through six necks and four bodies but the Lindo pickups will stay.

[/quote] Ha! Never heard this before.... but just realised that my BitsaP is actually a Triggers Broom Bass (3 necks, 2 scratch plates, 3 pickups, all the electrics.... just the body, BBOT bridge and earth wire to go.....). Is the current version of Dr Feelgood the ultimate Triggers Broom band? Apologies for the derail.

curlywurly Posted October 23, 2012 Author Share Posted October 23, 2012 Ha! No I do not work for them. I'm new to these forums and was just interested if anyone had had any experience with these instruments. Just spreading the word through the bass playing community Seems a shame for players to miss out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rusco Posted October 25, 2012 Share Posted October 25, 2012 I bought a Lindo p-bass as my first bass to try out. It did the job for a short time and gave me a baseline (haha) to work with when buying a better bass. My next was CV60 jazz which was like night a day... They are not great but do a job at their price point nothing more or less IMHO. Are you sure you don't work for them ? ;-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenFerguson Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 When your first post on a bass forum is extolling the virtues of a pish bass then yeah, he works for the company....or has never played a fender or squire or Westfield/aria/tanglewood ANY other p and or j bass. IMHO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gilby Posted October 27, 2012 Share Posted October 27, 2012 Regardless as to wether the op is spamming or not, I'm certain that any guitar taken to a show as a demo piece is going to be cherry picked from stock, set up and fret dressed immaculately. What arrives in the box is another story altogether. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would anyone want to buy a cheap musical instrument with such a crap manufacturers name in the first place? No wonder there's a market for fecker decals !
