I have played alot of high end basses and this bass although not known is easily up there with them..The problem is its not a well known name, so obviously it scares people off.. I have put this up before at a higher price but it didnt go, and lack of history with the bass is prob why..I took a bit of a gamble when i bought it and paid off..Smoking bass. for £450.00 you WILL NOT find a bass anwhere near as good as this..

Also what does the Ostinato weigh? Thanks

Like everyone else I'm having difficulty finding any info at all on the manufacturer. Seems a bit odd for such a quality looking instrument unless its a privateer custom builder? Serial number of 0005 suggests a small and exclusive operation!

Laurence Posted August 30, 2009 Posted August 30, 2009 Those are two fine looking basses! Especially the Ostinato
vmaxblues Posted August 31, 2009 Posted August 31, 2009 Amazing, cannot find anything about the Ostinato, I even looked if the company was called 'tribute bass' as Ostinato is a musical term, but no joy either. It looks like a great instrument, and I am a little tempted what with it being pretty close to me, but it would be nice to know a bit more about its provenance. Either way have a bump on me!
bubinga5 Posted August 31, 2009 Author Posted August 31, 2009 (edited) You wont find anytthing on Ostinato.. believe me i have researched the bass...It sounds italian because Ostinato is an Italian musical term.. I have owned the bass from new..loved it as soon as i played it..its got that amazing twang when you dig in...if i could cure the GAS i would keep it.. This is one of the best basses you will ever play... Edited August 31, 2009 by bubinga5
