That's not a replica of a bass, that's a six foot tall violin. Look at the tuners!

Don't get too excited, I saw one of these in a store a few years ago. It was a piece of ****. The plywood door was so warped you could't close it. Obviously, these are white elephants and they're trying to dump them.
Our oldsters would probably not pull the trigger, but I am concerned about some of our younger folks with some extra bread.
The thing will self destruct before your eyes. Be cool.

Plywood door? Not spruce?! I'll wait for the fully-carved version.
