BetaFunk Posted July 13, 2008 Posted July 13, 2008 There were a couple of pics of Jamaaladeen Tacuma in the July Bass Player mag with his DiPinto Belvedere Deluxe bass. I'm keen on buying one of these so just wondered if anyone has seen or played one of these basses? Quote

Me too - I've had one in the back of my mind since I saw Tom Herbert playing one with Acoustic Ladyland at a gig at the Spitz. Any other sightings or idea where they can be tried/bought? Thanks!

BigRedX Posted March 2, 2010 Posted March 2, 2010 I guess it's all a matter of taste. I prefer these to Italias. Also every Italia I've come across has looked pretty shoddy for fit and finish when seen close up. Quote

Certainly no worse than typical Fender or Gibson. Quote

Been there several times, the links to the UK dealers are dead ends, unfortunately. I'll know where to come next time I need help with a search engine though! Thanks. As for looks, yes they're all ugly. Apart from the Beveldere Deluxe. Quote
