MacDaddy Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 In yesterdays Metro (freebie 'news'paper given out in that London) there were some pics from the Sony Photo Exhibition. One of them was a bassist, but I've not seen the bass before. From the bridge unit it looked to be headless and seemed to have 2 different style HB's next to each other. Did anyone else see it?

geilerbass Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Yeah I saw that. I was wondering exactly the same. Kind of looked alright! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kiwi Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 oh yes, the Super Headless. Nice instruments, the gallery had one in a while back. I generally don't like Westones (as an ex-owner of a Spectrum II) but the Super Headless was a nice piece of work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beer of the Bass Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 I wasn't very impressed by the photography though - it looked rather obviously posed by a non-musician in a photographers studio. This negated the "rock'n'roll action shot" feel they were going for. Am I picky or what? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
vegas_hooker Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 Nope, most photography is guffage! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MoonBassAlpha Posted January 6, 2009 Share Posted January 6, 2009 This may have come up before, but does anyone know what the "guitar" picture you can select for a user account pic in Windows XP is, or is meant to be? I've pondered on this for a while now. Sorry, I can't work out how to put the pic up here. Cheers Jules Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Like I said, with a differing HB or maybe a ramp?

If you know what I mean. Edited January 6, 2009 by MacDaddy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I kind of had it in mind it might be a Toby of some flavour but I'm not all that familiar with 'em. I just thinks it's nice they didn't just go for a generic guitar like a Les Paul or Strat...
