Hideous, and yet strangely alluring...

You don't need an amp, or a drummer. what's not to like?

These have been around for a couple of years now and can't see what's hideous about them at all.

Perhaps you can tell us why you find it hideous?

Ugly. UG-LEE. Not aesthetically pleasing, to my eyes at least. Yet the concept - a bass with a built-in drum machine, and its own internal speaker, I find attractive. What can I say, I'm torn!

I was forced to use an original 60's Teardrop at an impromptu gig once... it was hideous to behold, and even worse to play... something I'd managed to push it to the back of my mind.... now I'll need more therapy to deal with the unleashed repressed memories...
