Eastwood Rocket Bass (with built in effects) and case in Sandiacre, Derbyshire for sale
Eastwood have a knack for taking iconic ,vintage guitars and updating the quality and performance for modern day , with better electrics and finishes whilst retaining the ethos and character. Based on the 1960's EKO Rocket. You wouldn't know it but it's a short scale bass, that is until you start playing and the frets are a little easier to reach. One volume , one tone . Both pots working fine. Previous owner had an envelope filter fitted (the darker controls on the pictures) . I don't usually use it as I go through an effects padal anyway. When I have it seems to put out more of a grungy drive sound. But it's nice to have in your armoury should a pedal malfunction. Nicely balanced. I've fitted quick release strap buttons. It comes with a brand new(well , 3 month old) soft case with a large large pocket and smaller pocket , 2 handles and shoulder straps All in all a unique and very eye catching piece. Gigged by me twice. By the way, my first/main bass is an Eastwood Airline MAP too ....and I've tried dozens of bass guitars. . Collection from Sandiacre . Ng10 5fx Close to J25 M1.
