Musky Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 It's a Hohner B Bass isn't it? What sort of opinions are you after - the B Bass was well enough thought of for the price at the time. May be you could tell us your thoughts as you've got it in hand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owd git Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 I have searched the net but info is hard to find.. Would that be original bridge? Anyone used them in their day. Maybe get an idea of value etc. A pro bass player tried it out yesterday, said it had fantastic tone and played really well and definitely a keeper. Being new to the forum just thought it might be interesting post. thanks for reply. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truckstop Posted January 18, 2015 Share Posted January 18, 2015 Oh my god, I used to use one of those years and years ago! The drummers Dad had one in their music room and I used to use it instead of bringing my own bass because I was a lazy 14 year old. Fond memories of learning how to play bass on one of those sadly, too young to notice such things as output, preamp and playability!

owd git Posted January 18, 2015 Author Share Posted January 18, 2015 Truckstop can you remember if the bridge was the same? Bigthumb I think Mahogany but not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
owd git Posted February 5, 2015 Author Share Posted February 5, 2015 The body is not Mahogany it's Maple. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Truckstop Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I certainly remember the fine tuners on the bridge but couldn't go into more detail than that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
