LOVE it!  I'm a sucker for blue, but blue metallic is even mo' bettah.

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Pretty! Close enough to the Mosrite look but without the odd reverse body.

Wow! Much nicer than the Eastwood Mosrite copies I've seen so far.  :thumbsup:

In this pic you see an Eastwood Mosrite copy (burst finish).
And a metallic blue (!) hand built Gun Customs Mosrite copy made by Eugen Wulff from Haarlem in The Netherlands.
That man is incredible. Not only did he build this bass, he also made the bridge, tailstop, handrest himself.

That blue one's nice!
The Eastwood in your pic is technically a copy of a Univox copy of a Mosrite.
The new one is more Mosrite-esque but with medium 32" scale.

Did you buy it new??  Looks real nice except the nut looks like it was pre-slotted for a righty and then recut for a lefty setup.
