Bassassin Posted July 17, 2009 Posted July 17, 2009 Straight-up sales pitch, I have to admit I'm tempted, but I need another project like I need scabies! Good luck with it, it's a bargain at £150 even if it is a plywood 'Orrible 'Ondo basket-case! Jon.
RAY AGAINST THE MACHINE Posted July 18, 2009 Posted July 18, 2009 Hondo11! My first bass was the same make ,but a precision. A friend of mine (going back 30 yrs) had a rick like yours only it was sunburst. It was better than mine. Used to get good stuff from catalogues back in the day. Have a bump

If it was 15 times smaller, I'd have bought it to hang off my rear view mirror, but the price would have to be 15 times smaller too Have a bump mate!
riff raff Posted July 21, 2009 Author Posted July 21, 2009 starting to think i've made this out to be worse than it is.

[/quote] Not at all, just a project that needs a bit of work. Honestly if I didn't already have a basement full of bits & no time to bolt 'em together, I'd have this, no question. J.
