discreet Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 (edited) Well go for it! It can't possibly sell for much. Loving the cut-down Jazz bell plate! Edited July 14, 2014 by discreet Quote
Happy Jack Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 There's a very 4th-Form woodwork class feel about it, things like that beautifully-sculpted headstock ( ), the 60's Futurama-style painted neck, and the [i]piece de resistance[/i] ... the mudbucker installed at a jaunty angle. One for the house band at the local blues jam, I feel. Quote
Monckyman Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 Yep, bloody shocking is what I say. You don't need it! Quote
tommorichards Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 I know exactly what you mean. I saw it when it came up, and ive been following its price. Im extremely tempted... Quote

Bassassin Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 I think that's started life as a Teisco or Kawai, probably mid/late 60s - something a bit like [url="http://www.mark-cole.co.uk/teisco/Images/literature/ad1-64_66.jpg"]the one in row 3 in this pic[/url]. Could be fun if it doesn't go for too much - that mudbucker's going to be loud! Jon. Quote
alyctes Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 I'd assumed someone had routed out a P-pup cavity for the 'bucker... thanks Jon Is that a five-bolt neck plate, or is it some sort of adjuster? The thing gets sexier every time I look at it Quote
alyctes Posted July 14, 2014 Posted July 14, 2014 I even like the mix of strings... at least enough to think about mixing flats and rounds. Quote
discreet Posted July 15, 2014 Posted July 15, 2014 [quote name='molan' timestamp='1405429623' post='2501807'] I think it looks kinda cool too [/quote] So do I, but I fear buyers' remorse might set in... Quote
tommorichards Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 Its back...... http://www.gumtree.com/p/guitar-instrument/vintage-japanese-bass/1115010416 Quote
discreet Posted May 8, 2015 Posted May 8, 2015 It's trying to be a Peterbuilt and failing quite badly... Quote
