Bogart Basses Back

[whynot]

Always been a fan of these basses and now they are back in production.
Unfortunately a little pricey but if anyone gets the chance to pickup one of the earlier 90's models on the cheap I recommend giving it a try if a graphite neck fan.

Interesting, thanks - another graphite pioneer in the mix!

The Gallery used to sell these - very interesting instruments! I think Tony Levin bought one back in '94...

Think there is still that green 4 string at the gallery

Ah!

Always fancied that one - very `minty' looking!

Always thought these were great basses actually. Oh and yes, the green one is still there....

i always quite liked these and the unusual headstock etc. Seem to remember Neil Murray used them quite alot at one stage....

I've always had a soft spot for these. Problem was when they stopped making them, you were in serious trouble if the string retaining screws had a stripped thread and it was quite a common occurence apparently.

and sure enough - they've changed the design to use standard tuning pegs rather than locking screws.

I think your right. SKC were a major source for spares on all related products but not these days I guess.
