JJW Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 Do you like these? I recently saw one in a shop and really liked it.

discreet Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 It's a nice vintage bass and I love the creamy white finish and black guard, but I'd rather spend the money on something else. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
howdenspur Posted February 14, 2015 Share Posted February 14, 2015 I bought one of these from a second hand shop in Cardiff in the late 70's - in this colour but a white pg I think. It was "well used" but great fun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chiliwailer Posted February 15, 2015 Share Posted February 15, 2015 (edited) Yeah, fun basses, unique tone but oh so heavy for a short scale during this period. Put some flats on and you'll have the Air - Moon Safari sound, I remember a lot of people going nuts for that tone in the late 90's, some say it was a MM but who knows? I used to have a couple of 71 Musicmasters, one original and one heavily modded with P Bass pickups, they are much lighter with amazing necks, but certainly not the best basses out there.

molan Posted February 16, 2015 Share Posted February 16, 2015 My first ever bass was a 79 Musicmaster. Bought brand new from the Soho Soundhouse in Leicester Square. Kept it for many years and, foolishly, sold it to buy a synth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
