The pickup is a Dimarzio Model One, the drums ? Motley Crue. Opps right on one count anyhow  :-[

Almost looks like Peart's kit from Rush...

I think it's Rush's logo on the drums. Doesn't seem like a Geddy bass tho.

I can be true to you sweety until I find a nice medium scale with great breasts. ... CW

I like the bass. But it needs a mudbucker:)

It reminds me a bit of the Malcolm Young Gretsch:

Reminds me of a Washburn I used to have ....

It ought to remind you of a doublecut Junior body, since that's exactly what it is.

My favorite Gibson shape. Definitely not Uwe's favorite Gibson shape.

Is that a Dimarzio Model One?

I reviewed this cheap Hamer a couple of weeks ago. Passive, cheap bass but I like it. The colour looks good in real life. Of course the first Hamers were doublecut copies.

Nice. Sure looks like a DiMarzio Model One. Another one for Ze Köllekschön?

That's sheer beauty! Such a good-looking bass, that Gibson one. Must agree with David, that on - and the reversed T-bird - are the nicest basses to be found. So I might as well wonder: Does anyone here have a natural sized sketch for the pickguard, -59, -60 Eb 0?
