bass_ferret Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 Ever heard of google? With Combat (the Tokyo guitar workshop) he also had them make several other basses of his own design. One he describes as "a Spector meets Prince's guitar", another a Rickenbacker meets Prince's guitar and the final, his signature, is a copied body from a Gretsch semi acoustic bass guitar coupled with a solid ash body which was then sprayed with sparkling gold paint.
beerdragon Posted October 22, 2008 Author Posted October 22, 2008 Good idea, i shall ignore Basschat. not post anything. share stuff with other people etc. i'll go straight to google. and if we all did that?
bass_ferret Posted October 22, 2008 Posted October 22, 2008 In case you have not noticed - we seem to be having a private argument. Conclusion: nobody gives a f*** what Taka Hirose plays. If you had googled what I did, found it was "With Combat (the Tokyo guitar workshop) he also had them make several other basses of his own design. One he describes as "a Spector meets Prince's guitar", another a Rickenbacker meets Prince's guitar...", you could have googled "combat tokyo guitar workshop" and maybe found out more about the bass. Then you could have posted something like: I saw Taka Hirose play this really cool Combat (tokyo guitar workshop) bass the other night. links...........Anyone know any more about these cool basses. Just an idea.

bass_ferret Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 There will come a day Ped when you will get fed up with wiping peoples arses for them. And talking of bassworld; I wonder if thats what happened to Gerard.
BigBeefChief Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Cheer up bass_ferret, at least he didn't ignore information that was previously posted in the Wiki. I believe that's another pet hate of yours?

Toasted Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 I like Ferret. He might be abrasive but at least he has some personality.

Toasted Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Meaning exactly what I wrote. What's not clear about it?

99ster Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 (edited) Quite apart from Mr Hirose's fabulous custom basses - [url="http://www.combat-guitars.com/guitarbass.htm"]Combat do some lovely looking stuff[/url]... Has anyone here got a Combat bass? Or played one? Edited October 23, 2008 by 99ster
Toasted Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 Never touched one, but good looking instruments.
