W1_Pro Posted January 29 Share Posted January 29 I've been after one of these since I saw a review in 'In Tune' magazine in 1984. It is a lovely and very well made bass. This particular example, having been in storage for about thirty years is immaculate. The Gordy brand is one of those fascinating little side roads in British guitar building that seemed to proliferate in the eighties. The neck profile on this bass is particularly praiseworthy. Its like a very fast jazz. The two humbuckers (Gordon Withams own make I think) sound nice and fat and the hardware is all very high quality. The woodwork is of a very high quality. All in all, I'm pretty happy to have finally anded one after a mere forty years.... 12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the middle position mutes both but I can't remember - it hasn't been out of its case in years! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
