Nice Bass Bri!

 

I think had this been the midi one, we would’ve been in convo.

 

They’ve always fascinated me as basses though.

This is originally an American brand from the 90's crafting high end guitars and basses, some with composite material too.

 

These Korean models are excellent too for a fraction of the price.

Thanks Tony, these are very well made basses and were $1500 new in the early 2000's for this model

Sure Brian, they were very expensive back then, but the high craftsmanship justifies the price.

 

When I said fraction, it's because the American models were 3 to 4 or even 5 times more expensive...

What a lovely thing.  Never seen or heard of these before. That contoured body looks sublime.

I can't help thinking of a ´slap switch´ as some kind of inspector Gadget crossed with The Hitcher from Mighty Boosh device - hit it and a big old cartoon thumb comes out on the arm from an anglepoise lamp 😆 That or it can be deployed at rowdy pub giggs if punters get too close.
