GreeneKing Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 I do like it, very much so Dares to be different. Same with his decoration, well cool. Peter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beedster Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Any listing that starts with the phrase "VENDO STUPENDO" gets my vote without question! Chris Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted November 24, 2007 Share Posted November 24, 2007 Too bad he feels he has to say "Fender Jazz" in his listing to get people to look. I think it's stunning, I could even learn to live with that pointless little flap where the headstock isn't. Jon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rich Posted November 25, 2007 Share Posted November 25, 2007 I love it... up as far as the nut. Then, it all goes tragically wrong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd quite like one of those for each of my basses. J. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigRedX Posted November 26, 2007 Share Posted November 26, 2007 And that at the moment is a very good price for a Laurus... It'll be interesting to see what the end price is. The last couple of Laurus basses on eBay have been priced much higher and as a consequence not attracted any bids. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 [quote name='grosa' post='94155' date='Nov 25 2007, 03:54 PM']what were they thinking with that headstock? otherwise i like it[/quote] If you look at the [url="http://www.laurus.it/english/models.html"]pictures on the manufacturer's website[/url], the headstock makes more aesthetic sense - it picks up the body theme rather nicely. I'd prefer a headless headless myself but I wouldn't say no to one of those. Wish I had a grand to spare, I'm just trying to settle on a 5-string fretless at the moment...

BigRedX Posted November 28, 2007 Share Posted November 28, 2007 (edited) There is a technical reason for the 'headstock' rather than just looks and I'm pretty sure that there used to be an explaination of it on a previous incarnation of the Laurus site. Something to do with neck resonance IIRC. Edited November 28, 2007 by BigRedX Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WarPig Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 and there i was hoping for a bass shaped like a jar of marmite Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SJA Posted December 6, 2007 Share Posted December 6, 2007 looks like it takes standard single ball end strings, and you have to chop them off at the clamp. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(A deformed one I grant you). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
