Crawford13 Posted June 22, 2017 Share Posted June 22, 2017 Hi folks. About 10 years ago I bought a hand crafted bass off eBay, it was called a Schick zebra. It states that it was hand crafted in the Czech Republic. Recently I have been trying to find out more information about this bass and it's luthier, but I am coming up empty. Does anyone know anything about these basses? I will load some pics when I have figured out how to do it on basschat. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cosmo Valdemar Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 Never heard of Schick... Sure it wasn't Schack? http://schack-guitars.de/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pmjos Posted June 23, 2017 Share Posted June 23, 2017 try this........I did a Czech language search for you...They certainly did exist, based in Northern Moravia in Czech Republic producing in the early 2000's. They didn't get much out of Czech Republic and were a small boutique maker following the Tobias genre. They had good reviews but don;t seem to be around now. Moravia has a long history of producing fine luthiery and still does. The Furch Brand makes one of the finest acoustic bass guitars I have played. http://www.muzikus.cz/pro-muzikanty-testy/Schick-Rhino-5-Fretless-Bass-Baskytara~04~duben~2002/ and on a Czech music forum http://hudebniforum.cz/baskytary/schick-rhino-5-fretless-t23425.html?sid=6c829db7ea3e043de0e665f7b4c62827 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
