Frank Blank Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 Does anyone know what bass the excellent Rozi Plain is playing in these shots? Is this within @Bassassin's superb breadth of bass knowledge I wonder? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pineweasel Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 It's a Dallas bass, sold by Arbiter in the 60s. Doesn't seem toe much info on them but here's one for sale: https://southsideguitars.com/products/1960s-Dallas-Arbiter-Bass-Red-and-White-Pearl-p538588259 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grahambythesea Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 The action on it looks rather high. If it has the same bridge as in the advert found by @pineweasel then it’s not easily adjustable. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never seen one of these before, I'll hazard a guess it's Italian, though. Really like the body shape/pickguard & that laminated look to the body edges. The rest, not so much! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pineweasel Posted September 10 Share Posted September 10 She seems to have a penchant for UK branded, 1960s basses in red. Spotted at Glastonbury this year: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
