Newfoundfreedom Posted July 26, 2019 Posted July 26, 2019 I do love to see the Soviet stuff come up. But this one's nowhere near mad looking enough. It looks almost ..... Well..... Playable. Quote
NikNik Posted July 28, 2019 Posted July 28, 2019 What a dog. 3-pin DIN for going into you radio!! Quote
Happy Jack Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 Forget the bass ... I want that wallpaper. Quote

Stub Mandrel Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 Clearly made during the great ABS famine of 1972-4 when scratchplates were limited to no more than 170 square centimetres by order of the Party. Quote
songofthewind Posted July 29, 2019 Posted July 29, 2019 Very advanced bass for its time: the now fashionable single cut and the Parker headstock. 1 Quote

They are really a thing of hideously ugly beauty. One of our esteemed members ( exactly who escapes my recollection at the moment ) bought the bass version a few months ago and has it hanging above his fireplace. At least it keeps the kids away from the fire. 😂 1 Quote

Hellzero Posted July 30, 2019 Posted July 30, 2019 That's @Happy Jack indeed. Seeing the shirts or socks he is daring to wear, the bass was of really good taste in comparison. 🤣 😉 1 Quote
