funkyspuke Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 (edited) I'd like to dedicate this post to the much traveled Valenti #42 (in candy apple red). I was owner 434/1208. Having read some of the latest posts in the for sale forum, I fear for its soul parts pulled out and discarded, replaced with god knows what So, I open this topic for people to share their memories of this amazing bass and maybe even for the current owner to come forward. Thanks Edited March 25, 2017 by funkyspuke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NancyJohnson Posted March 24, 2017 Share Posted March 24, 2017 What a nonsense. If you feared for it, why didn't you buy it? Good grief. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good grief. [/quote] I haven't been on basschat for years .. I sold it on probably a year before then. I thought I'd add some humour to what is essentially a request for an update on the bass. Maybe you need a nap? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] Three times he's had it. How many times he's owned the bass I'm not sure. As an aside, that Valenti headstock always struck me as a bit of a shocker. Looks like a dog took a bite out of it.

geoffbyrne Posted March 26, 2017 Share Posted March 26, 2017 In that case, he once let me play it at The Old Volunteer Open Mic at Carlton, Nottingham. So I'm sad if it has deceased. And yes, I've seen better headstocks. G. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
