What wouldyou guys reckon the truest value of this baby to be?



I'd say about 1500 dollar. But maybe a little less because of the modifications. Of course the non original Badass is obvious. But lucky enough the bass wasn't routed to fit the Badass, so that mod is reversible. Shame about the holes at the tail. My guess is that they once had a trapeze tailpiece installed in order to be able to fit long scale strings...






And I like both versions of Women In Uniform. Never heard the original before (didn't even know it was a cover!)

Those weird kind of inventions makes it even more desirable!

No I don't believe it's a Hamer. The logo doesn't seem right.
I mean if you look at the LP sleeve of One Night At Budokan there's a few quite clear pics of that same bass.

But it does have white bindings...

Uwe seems to be certain it's an Ibanez Destroyer. But I think that logo isn't correct either. Ibanez had the logo on the very tip of the head stock.



While Chris Glen's bass has a logo somewhere under the D and G peg.
I can't quite decipher what it spells but it seem to begin with a K...

Let's ask the man himself. I just sent him a friend request on MySpace.

Yep, that's exactly what I meant Uwe.
Gary Barden's voice is/was shot. I'm suffering subsititutive embarrassment (don't know the exact english expression) when I hear him struggle.

And yes it puzzled me too back then, why Schenker didn't put St Holmes on the spot.
He even hired Klaus Meine to fill in on Doctor Doctor...

Guess the drugs really took their toll on Herr Schenker and his logic...

Yup, that looked pretty clumsy.  :thumbsup:
Maybe that is one of the reasons why I never took Novoselic too serious as a bassplayer (nor politician)

This is a classic.  :toast:
I remember it from the Dudepit mk1 days.

Apparently the Danes were so proud of Tommy Seebach they sent him to the Eurovision song contest a few times :D
