Gould Basses ??

[multibassification]

Hey

I bought a "gould" bass about a year ago for about £80 i think, as a beginner bass. So i've got a new bass now and was wondering if anyone has ever played a gould bass or even heard of them or knows any names of the models, because i dont hav have a clue what model it is. Or even just wot u think about them. So .. yeh ...

The ones I've seen were all run of the mill P bass copies, you get good ones and bad ones. I think they are made in China, on a par with Stagg.
I set one up a couple of days ago , the frets were sharp at the egdes and had to be filed to stop a customer cutting themself (it's the only Gould I've come across that had an unfinished neck, they normally have a laquer)
It set up quite nicely in the end , a good p bass copy for the money, it was pink.
