taurus1 Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 I realise this is a massive long shot but here goes.I traded my first bass,a Westone Thunder 1A for a Washburn Bantam Steinberger copy at Music Village in Cambridge some time in 1996-97 (I think).I'd love to know where it is now.From memory,the A string machinehead post fell out when the string was removed and there was a fair amount of wear above the pickup.Is she out there?. Forgive the hairstyle.I was 17.It was 1983.Don't judge me Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steve-soar Posted January 3, 2015 Share Posted January 3, 2015 Brill pic, mate. Proper Damian Grant. I had one of these, in lefty and, great basses. I'm on the look out for my old Jaydee Mark King. It played like a dog but I saved so had for it, that I would love her to be back in he fold. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taurus1 Posted January 4, 2015 Author Share Posted January 4, 2015 It's odd how we don't always value our first instruments for their importance in our bass playing journey.At the time we just want to trade up for something better and don't realise the sentimental value.This Westone was hugely important in starting my career.I wish I'd hung onto it. I had an old JD Mark King too,and that it was on that bass that my playing came together.I sold that also.I'm not a clever man!.I hope you find your old flame.
