Title: Where did this bass come from?
Post by: Larry on September 23, 2011, 10:17:01 AM

I have just got a new Samick bass. Inside the label says it is a HFB 590 model. Every picture I see of a HFB 590 has a Gibson like headstock. Mine does not. I am a little confused. Any idea how old and where this one came from?
