Kudzuman	Advice on acoustic bass guitars (48)	RE: Advice on acoustic base guitars	27 Dec 02
Well Jed, I just played one of those Martin Basses and it was pretty puny I thought. Weirdly enough I had played one of those (Martins) and then on a strange whim picked up of all things a Hohner Acoustic Bass with the Triangular cutaway.....Wham!! What a sound! Drove the Martin in the ground. Had a friend play the Martin side by side with me and nobody in the store could even hear the Martin. The only difference was the Hohner was VERY affordable. $400 with the Hardshell Case (used). It's a monster with full EQ and onboard elctronics if you want to go that route. Played with a Bluegrass group the other night and no problems unplugged. The name doesn't have the "Martin" mystique, but I was looking for sound not names and I got it!! Kudzuman
