I couldn't let this slide today, local find on CL,snatched it up for $300 with the Gibson factory hard case. Been in one family since new, from the kid who bought it new, to the aunt who bought it off the nephew, then the aunt giving it to her son. The cousin is the one who thought it looked better to paint it half black and half white and put a skull sticker on it lol. If figure at this price won't be the end of the world to refinish the paint or maybe router some of the dead weight off. Love the pbass on steroids sound these guys have. My twin pup Victory is on ebay right now, maybe I bought this one for early separation anxiety.

Ya know that scene in gummo where its a house party, and everyone is drinking and watching a guy wrestle a chair? After driving 5 hrs that's pretty much the "wedding reception/house warming" we ended up at. Newly weds at each others throats. Some guy burned his hand. We're doctoring on people and counseling while a 12 yr old boy wresles a 28 yr old woman. In the yard. In the rain. Great vacation. FML.

I picked mine up about 18 months ago for $345 plus shipping...it was one of two that I was really after...black on black/rosewood. It does seem they've gone up a bit, though a buddy of mine recently found one identical to mine in a pawn shop for $175, with OHSC. They seem to be going for closer to $500 these days...just my opinion, but well worth it.

Yep. I have been venturing out into the basses/amps/effects forums lately, but I always come back here for the straight scoop.

Great to see some new people posting lately!

Everyone's waking up. I've been promised shrimp and grits. I really shouldn't be surprised by last night. Every time I come to Louisiana madness ensues. Although being and hour and a half from New Orleans in the middle of nowhere is new.

I think the cheapest I've seen one go for is $250. The one I tried out was $350. Tried to get the guy to trade me for my ATK, but he ultimately wasn't interested despite him saying Ibanez were his favorite haha.

Every needs to have at least one Gummo moment in their life. I earned mine on an early start heading back to PA from Florida for a visit. I just outside of Jacksonville on an exit off of I-10. Needed a bathroom stop and some gas. Pull in the convenient store, and the air outside smells like a sewer, there is a gay midget and a gay redneck(think Deliverance, squeal piggy) flirting and arguing with each other. Go inside and more Deliverance Rednecks in the store. Now the whole time everyone there stops what they are doing to severely eye ball me. So pay for gas, then head to the bathroom, which apparently is their fetish room as feces was everywhere, everywhere but in an actual toilet. Needless to say I didn't the bathroom till I crossed the state line. Nothing scarier than a strong gay.
