I've been using thomann for about 4 years now, nothing but excellent service and cheep as chips prices... however whilst checking out a few prospective candidates for next months paycheque I saw this [url="http://www.thomann.de/gb/yamaha_trb1004_aqb.htm"]Yamaha TRB1004[/url]. Obviously that's not a real photo of the bass (unless Yamaha really fecked up the design). So why bother compositing a photo? If they didn't have the bass there to shoot then surely they could have got one from Yamaha? or is the headstock hideous and they think that this photo won't put punters off?

Ugh. I've sent that link to [url="http://photoshopdisasters.blogspot.com/"]Photoshop Disasters[/url] - they love that kind of thing.

Where does the extra string go?

[The Burpster]

Buy one, and then send it back stating that it isnt like the one shown on thier website.....

That should be quite amusing.....


Alternativley just point it out tio them....!

it's a new concept- a dummy machinehead to damp erroneous resonances

It makes none
But now you have gone
And you must be looking very old tonight.

That was the first thing i did after posting here. It'll be interesting to hear why, if they bother responding. Maybe someone in marketing just put it up for a joke?
