stingraybassman Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 (edited) I will try to keep this post from sounding too smug........ So I was lucky enough to win the Rotosound Swing bass 66, 50 year anniversary T-Shirt Design competition (easy for me to say). This morning I received an American Vintage '63 Reissue in olympic white. It really is a stunning bass, the finish is amazing. I know there is a shortage of info and sound clips online for these, so I will endeavour to get some up ASAP. Safe to say its sounds as good as it looks.

Dingus Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 (edited) [quote name='owen' timestamp='1382367189' post='2251259'] Nodody likes a show off. [/quote] No one like me and I haven't even won a bass . Congratulations ! What a fab bass to win , too . Are you contractually obligated to put Rotos on it? Love the colour scheme . Brian Wilson used one just like this with The Beach Boys . Edited October 21, 2013 by Dingus Quote
Dingus Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 I've just been having a closer look at that pic, and it looks like that bass has got a very beautifully figured rosewood fingerboard , too . That mint pickguard makes it for me, though . Looks better than tort on that bass . Quote
madshadows Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Lucky fecker, seriously congrats, lovely looking bass John Quote
