Poserboy's 12 string bass
I bought this from Eric Brittingham from Cinderella .
In 1988 Eric Brittingham of the band Cinderella had this custom 12-string bass built for the "Long Cold Winter" tour.
The body shape is the Blitz Bass design which was built by Hamer from 1982 to 1990.
The deep Burgundy Sparkle finish appears almost black from a distance. Set neck with no inlays.
OBL (Original Bill Lawrence) pickups were used.
Eric's name is on the custom-shaped headstock, as is the large "arena" sized Hamer logo.
I had always wanted a 12 string bass. This one fell into my lap about 2 years ago. It is awesome and one of the reasons for my security system.

Woah! Mega bass!
Prefer Eric's "poofey hair" look though.

Promises made, crying in vain, all empty. Never accepting the blame and not letting go of the shame. A river of tears, as months turn to years, all wasted. On someone not willing to change.Now only a shadow remains!

I got Jesus in my fax machine. I saw Ho Chi Minh down @ Burger King. I dated Vinnie Vincent as a Drag Queen. I still don't understand a f**kin' thing.

great bass,PB, very nice.
i'm sure it sounds great.
Huh, the fact that it has 12 strings has nothing to do with Cheap Trick, btw?

Funny, I shave and I look 100 pounds heavier YET everyone is saying that I look ten years younger and keep asking if I've lost weight. Thank goodness I can still see my pecker past my belly. WTF ?
