 Posted: Tue Jun 24, 2008 5:56 pm Post subject: Free 5 string bass |
 |
|
made by a company called DeArmond. The saddle is a bit fd. Also it is neck to body construction.
It was made here but I bought it from a music shop in Philadelphia in the U.S. on January 2nd, 2000. Since then I have replaced one of the pickups as well as glued the head back together as it is splitting apart.
DeArmond was owned by Fender up until Y2K when they dropped them. I think DeArmond is still in effect but not with Fender. Before Y2K it was 1,100.00 USD but after Jan 1st 2000, when Fender dropped them, it went down to 300.00 USD. I guess you could say I got a good deal, not really I don't really like the bass. It does have 5 strings though.
I'm just giving it or throwing it away. The guys at the markets don't want it, even though it's Korean made. It would sound better through some kind of pedals for experimental music as it isn't really that quality, but nontheless, you can still play the hell out of it. You need strong fingers to handle the action on it.

Mine has a wood finish instead of the blue, also there is some dried blood around the pickups because I played the hell out of it, it's ingrained into the wood because I keep it real when I play. It's okay though because I am type O and everyone likes Type O. |

I'll throw fifty your way if you ignore all these folks who want it for free.
If not, I'll also gladly take it for nothing. |

Good luck finding a free Rickenbacker in Korea. I don't even think they know what Rickenbackers are here. |
