gub Posted March 23, 2014 Posted March 23, 2014 Anyone had any experience of them? They have a Facebook page that I have liked as they seem to have some lovely looking stuff. Quote
Machines Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Played a few at a stand at a music show last year. I don't get what they're trying to achieve as they're far eastern made parts just put together in the UK for a lot of money. They played ok but I didn't see the value in the UK setup side of things, especially for £60ish. Quote

Machines Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 Also the headstock decals looked very amateurish as you could see they were waterslides lacquered on top. Quote
dannybuoy Posted March 24, 2014 Posted March 24, 2014 They do more than Jazz basses too: For those prices, I assume they are just hand assembling off the shelf parts rather than crafting the bodies and necks themselves. Quote

gub Posted March 24, 2014 Author Posted March 24, 2014 Pretty much as I thought really, it seem to be assembling the parts from elsewhere, didn't like the decals either, think it was the combo of cream jazz with pearl scratch plate, white pickup covers that sucked me in! Quote
