Mr H Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 I think it's [i]very[/i] handsome, but it's too close to [a] Christmas and [b] my Yamaha SBV500. What does the panel think?

Roland Rock Posted December 26, 2012 Posted December 26, 2012 Very cool - it's a shame that the headstock and tuners aren't a bit less pointy, it looks a bit too modern for the body imo Quote
LukeFRC Posted December 27, 2012 Posted December 27, 2012 he's been trying to sell that on gumtree for months. Quote
Rick's Fine '52 Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 "Eye of the beholder"......you got that right! Quote

Truckstop Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 I just find the blue vomit-worthy. If it were a less offensive colour I might be inclined to have a closer look! Truckstop Quote

The OP stated the 'eye of the beholder' comment, clearly aware that this is a marmite bass. I'm just in the 'not for me' camp on this one, although i do love marmite! Quote
BetaFunk Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 I loathe Marmite but i like that Schecter. It's surftastic. Quote
mbellishment Posted December 28, 2012 Posted December 28, 2012 Looks like it's trying to be retro and modern at the same time... not my cup of tea at all m'fraid Quote
Mr H Posted December 28, 2012 Author Posted December 28, 2012 So, it's between me, grumble, and BetaFunk at the moment... I'm not bidding. Honest. I do really like it though. "Surftastic" describes it very well. Quote

[/quote] You're welcome to it, at £112, it's already £100 more than I'd pay for it! (I'm joking by the way, I'm sure its an excellent sounding and playing bass for that money) Quote
