Love a lot of the things they do as a company - and we’re a captive audience for a lot of their products. A Build Diary thread might be appropriate but I haven't checked the site rules about commercial manufacturers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah. There we go. Another option. And as it’s so specific to the owner, I’d say it’s an employee of the manufacturer saying “here’s something I did” rather than “buy buy buy!”. But. It’s done now - I’m sure we’d like to see what they’re capable of as a company. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Same thing though... no? Yeh word on the street is that Warwicks were (are?) a bit of Spector rip off, but probably no more so than everyone else who found "inspiration" (aka design right theft) from good ole Leo...

What a positive start to a Saturday 😂 I’m off to look into a Brown Sparkle Yamaha BB with gold hardware and pearloid tuning buttons and 14mm spacing with midi and mini USB outputs. Fan frets and 18 stings tuned in semitonal increments. But is it good for metal? 🤔😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you've no doubt noticed by now I'd be interested to see it in one of the standard Enfield finishes. Some sound/video clips would be good to hear/see too.

No matter how elegant, balanced and good looking a bass may be with white and gold hardware it's just wrong. FACT.

Not really an issue, I think all the folk who like that combo are due to be burned at the stake so the problem should go away pretty soon 😁 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Paul S Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 The negativity is also about how the guy who made it pretending to have nothing to do with it and posting gushing praise then compounding the issue with a bullsh!t apology about his motives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris2112 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I saw it yesterday on their Facebook page when it was revealed. I think it's fantastic, probably the nicest bass in that 'Larry Graham Moon' style. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nige1968 Posted March 14, 2020 Share Posted March 14, 2020 I have a couple of basses with gold hardware. Can’t be bothered/afford to change them, but honestly it’s trying a bit too hard to look premium, isn’t it? Reminds me of nothing so much as the ‘fancy’ radiator grille on an Allegro Van Den Plas. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
