Title: Module bass / swiss army bass
Post by: Chris P. on April 07, 2013, 03:29:19 AM
Dutch company made some new Danelectro's for Rinus Gerritsen. They used all kinds of NOS parts which Rinus found. He now has all kinds of Longhorns.

A friend/colleague of mine already made a bass with a rotating pickguard with all kinds of pickups and now he went to the same company to make this bass. A five string Longhorn with all kind of pick up modules:

It's from facebook so I hope you can see it. If not I'll post some pics seperately.

Interesting.  Kind of like the old Elektra guitars that had module components.

No need to post pics separately, you can see it even if you're not logged into FB.

It does bring back memories of those old Elektra modules. Next thing you know, Gibson will buy them out and offer Les Pauls with interchangeable flametop modules.
