cLepto-bass Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I always fancied one of these but dont have money.

harvey1-8 Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I spotted this earlier today. Still really fancy the RD in the Gibson Porn thread with the binding round the body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rapscallion Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I used to have one, selling it was idiotic, even if it was far from original Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cLepto-bass Posted February 9, 2010 Author Share Posted February 9, 2010 I remember seeing a cool as **** picture of Jon Entwhistle playing one of these and I have wanted one ever since then. Mind you, what bass didnt he play and manage to look cool with?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
umcoo Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 I played one of these once and the neck was absoluetly massive. I was using a Precision at the time, so was used to fat necks, but this was crazy. Sounded pretty terrible too! Just my two pence Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
neepheid Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 £40 postage on Parcelforce 48? What's the case made of - concrete? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted February 9, 2010 Share Posted February 9, 2010 They do weigh an absolute ton, not over the 30kg limit with PF though. Also the case is very long as these have huge headstocks I had an RD Artist '77 in maple. Eventually sold it for around £470, was on eBay with a reserve of £600 and didn't get one bid!
