Bassassin Posted February 20, 2015 Share Posted February 20, 2015 Very cool - it's actually a relative of the Eko BX series, the exact same bass turns up branded as Camac, I think. As far as I know Brandoni was (maybe still is) an outlet for a lot of the old Recanti-made Eko parts and that'll be the origin of this. If I was still anywhere near Sheerness, I'd be proper tempted by this. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chaypup Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 Nice looking bass! But what an odd pickup position. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chriswareham Posted February 22, 2015 Share Posted February 22, 2015 If you check out the Brandoni Guitars website, then you'll see they still have a lot of old parts from the bankruptcy of the Eko factory. They made the semi-acoustic bass that I got from my parents as a 21st birthday present, back when the occasional Brandoni made instrument would appear in Macari's music shop.
