The Last Bass Outpost

Ha! Hard to tell if that's satire or not. He needs to be sent into space.

Apparently made at the Samick factory where Epi and I think I saw Kramer mentioned.

Cool, I was hoping for a back of headstock shot. Samick makes some fine instruments. I have an acoustic guitar and a mini bass with their name on them.

Love that finish, and it sounds great. Funny that it's got a 3 point while the Epis get the Tune-O.

Liked and subscribed!

Finally, some real country:

Mark King with an EB-3 is sure a rare sighting.

At those prices, I would guess Korea. That's still Samick headquarters.

According to some TB threads I saw, apparently Indonesia, but I don't see any concrete proof there.

It's been busy at the Ponderosa finally had a chance to sit down with it. https://youtu.be/OV1i-QBpbCs?si=n0EWPJPd3jkP-vsn
