AndyTravis Posted July 31, 2014 Share Posted July 31, 2014 Isn't it time they reissued the reissue of the DC bass? Hens teeth, very frustrating. Hopefully picking up a hodad 3 pickup 90's bass soon, if I'm quick enough. Might just build my own DC, got a PDF of the guitar blueprints to work from. The short scale longhorn is cool, but not as pretty, the wild thing was a beaut. And the current hodad is short scale and not (in my opinion) a patch on the 90's one looks wise. They keep doing the guitar 59, think the bass is due another go? Put an add in wanted here, give us a shout if you spot one? Ace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
theyellowcar Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 I agree! I love the DC bass. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 The three pickup Hodad is a lot of fun. All 7 pickup combinations available, and the all three pickups together is on a separate switch - the oomph switch! I had one a few years ago. Sold it on, but it sounded good, looked pretty "out there" and was super light (of course!) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
basshead56 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 (edited) I've got a DC. Took me about 6 years to find one that didnt cost stupid money and it appeared in the local music shop in my adopted home in rural NZ! Typical! If there was a fire, it's what id save first!!! Also keeping my eye out for another - Commie Red would be nice! Edited August 7, 2014 by basshead56 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
antnee Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 I'd love a DC, saw one one eBay UK recently, went for £180 😐 was gutted I didn't have the money, in hind sight a loan would have been worthwhile! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TomRichards Posted August 4, 2014 Share Posted August 4, 2014 Silvertone is making a version of the bass now too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
casapete Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 I've been after a silver sparkle DC for a while now - missed a couple along the way. Remember trying one out late 90's when first reissued - should've got one then! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndyTravis Posted August 6, 2014 Author Share Posted August 6, 2014 Think I'm going to make my own version of a DC. Found a 1:1 PDF blueprint for the guitar version on an American forum and will adapt it. Also, a mate with a guitar shop has a DC-12 string in stock to look at for depth/shape etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
