Skinnyman Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Been after a short scale bass for a while and having sold my Bass VI, I traded in an old 12 string acoustic to get this wee thing on @Teebs' recommendation I'm not convinced about the colour but I'm very impressed with the noise it makes. I'm even more impressed with having some change from the deal 😀 4 Quote
casapete Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I'm liking the colour - kind of British racing green. Heard good things about these basses, great value for money too. 1 Quote
Cosmo Valdemar Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 You can get these in green now?! 1 Quote

Those little basses make some noise - you wouldn't believe it from the mini-humbuckers! Enjoy! (& think very carefully before you re-spray!) 1 Quote

Ricky 4000 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 I'm liking the colour as well, Manskinny. 👍 I know what you mean, but that green, in that bass - it looks classy! 1 Quote

Skinnyman Posted February 6, 2019 Author Posted February 6, 2019 I guess it reminds me of the old Morris 1100 GPO van that my dad used to drive. I'm also tempted to do it camo. Or is that too naff? Quote

burno70 Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Don't spray it - it's lovely! And I don't usually go for green basses. Quote
uk_lefty Posted February 6, 2019 Posted February 6, 2019 Don't re spray it but add mini cooper racing stripes! 2 2 Quote

The weirdness is nothing to do with Wales. 1 Quote
