Name that bass (again!)

[Conan]

Nice looking and sounding J-bass clone. Pickups look like Nordstrand Big Singles or similar....

I can't quite read the logo on the headstock - anyone know what it is?

All I can say is if you want people to recognise your bass from all the other Fender clones then put a legible logo on it.

Or hideous headstock shape.

Someone ought to be able to recognise it from a static picture, which is on the Beeb website. One or two highly scripted Ls to start? I can't embed it, go to the site and pick slide 4.

As we now know the head stock you are thinking of is just a blank for the new owner to re shape to their design, as is the body

[Conan]

So I'm guessing that nobody knows then?

Believe me, I've been trying my hardest to find out, but I'm coming up blank so far!

Me too! I even tried Wiki with "bass guitar manufacturers starting with the letter L"! It's starting to frustrate me now... maybe someone on here knows Charles Cave as is aware of which basses he plays? Here's hoping!

I'm now convinced it's not an L!
[/quote]

Really? I suppose it could be a "Z", but I was pretty sure it was an L. What do you think it might be?

[stingrayPete1977]

Could the fact its not contoured suggest a proper one off?

[geoffbyrne]

Levinson?

G.

[BetaFunk]

Atelier Z?

[BigRedX]

If you do a Google image search you can see him playing a whole host of different basses...
