mr4stringz Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 Any clue? Snapped by my daughter on holiday as she thought it may be of interest. It’s not really but unusual for me to have sight of something, even junk type stuff, I’ve not at least seen before. Quote
Reggaebass Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 I don’t know what it is but it’s pretty cool Quote
Chiliwailer Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 Had the guitar version of that as a teen, £40 I think, back in 1996. It’s a cheapie with a vibe in the looks department 😊 Quote
Chiliwailer Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 Actually, that 6 string is cooler than the one I had 👍 Quote

Reggaebass Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 I think they are Czech , if it’s a reasonable price I think I would be tempted to buy it mr4 🙂 1 Quote

bnt Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 According to this, they're made by a company called Jolana in the Czech Republic. I can't see any basses on that site, though. 1 Quote
Bassassin Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 Jolana Diamant, 70s/early 80s Czechoslovakia. These are pretty good & getting a bit collectable. Loads of Jolana info here: http://cheesyguitars.com/ 1 1 Quote
Waddo Soqable Posted June 3, 2021 Posted June 3, 2021 If it's not silly money, I'd buy it like a shot..! 1 Quote
mr4stringz Posted June 3, 2021 Author Posted June 3, 2021 Thanks so much all. And also, in terms of a support group I love that BC continues to be the opposite of the equivalent of the 12 step program. 🤣 1 Quote
Maude Posted June 7, 2021 Posted June 7, 2021 If you're not going to buy it, tell me where it is so I can. 😁 Quote

Also didn’t get as far as getting the price. It was (hopefully still is) at Cardigan Music Centre in lovely West Wales. Curious shop filled with wild and wonderful old instruments according to my daughter... Quote

Loads of Jolana info here: http://cheesyguitars.com/ Love this quote about this bass from the site you mentioned I've heard a band where bassist used this bass live - it sounded like an old shoe.
