NBD Vista Musicmaster

Post by Johno »

I'd been after a bass for a little while when a Bronco popped up in a local charity shop for £50. A fine bass for messing about on & the neck felt nice but by the time I added up the cost of sorting out the issues I soon realised I'd be better off with something else. A week later I found a Vista series Musicmaster for £120 & sold the Bronco on.

The Musicmaster is leaps ahead in quality & plays & sounds great... some pics

Yeah, makes me miss my '78 musicmaster bass. I wouldn't mind owning one of these at some point... especially if I could find one for that price.

Its kinda of cream, I'm not sure if it was that way new but it still had the protective film on it when I picked it up.
Reckon it would look great with a bwb guard.

If I saw a pank MM bass for $300 or less, I'd buy it without a second thought.
