Happy Jack Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 So there I was, walking down Denmark Street and minding my own business when I stopped to have a look in the window at Wunjo's.

Happy Jack Posted March 14, 2015 Author Posted March 14, 2015 Did I need it? No, not really. Do I like it? Oh yes ... lots. 1965, all original, plenty of genuine play wear, no relic'ing.

Happy Jack Posted March 14, 2015 Author Posted March 14, 2015 Sounds even better through a vintage WEM ...

BigRedX Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Very nice! Make sure you post it on the [url=http://www.mosriteforum.com/forum/]Mosrite Forum[/url] too. Quote
RhysP Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 1965? I'd be more than happy to have that as my YOB bass - very cool, love Mosrites. Quote
BassBus Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 Someone really should ban music shops. They just lead people like us astray. Quote
EliasMooseblaster Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 It's never *just* a look in the window, is it? Gorgeous bit of kit, that! Quote
Annoying Twit Posted March 14, 2015 Posted March 14, 2015 That's really got some character. Surftastic. Quote
Number6 Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Nice bass! Haha those Wunjo Super Villains know how to tempt people into that shop..... They also know which of us pass by on a regular basis.....dastardly evil geniuses! Enjoy 👍 Quote

Billy Apple Posted March 15, 2015 Posted March 15, 2015 Congratulations, outstanding purchase Sir! I was only looking at this on the Wunjo site last night thinking what a great piece it is. Any change of some sound clips? Quote
