Prosebass Posted September 17, 2008 Share Posted September 17, 2008 Has anyone out there seen, heard or bought a Birdsong short scale bass ? I like the company ethics and the way they build.

I think this extract sort of sums it up.... [quote]For some people collecting is simply the quest, in some cases a life-long pursuit that is never complete. Additional collector motivations include psychological security, filling a void in a sense of self. Or it could be to claim a means to distinction, much as uniforms make the “man.” Collections could be a means to immortality or fame vis-a-vis Dr. Louis Leakey.[/quote] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
