I have always been partial to 'fur inlining'.

"The bass does have random stickers on it, than can be covered up with cooler stickers if desired."

I doubt I can find cooler stickers than this guy has already.

It's sad when 'it's NOT ok to contact this poster with services or other commercial interests' is the only thing in the ad that makes any sense.

Wow - of all the basses in the world I think there is no doubt that black basses are by far the most desirable. But he doesn't list a price - do you suppose the seller would just laugh at me if I offered him or her $1,500?

When and if you were to contact them and you asked them about the bass that goes in the case and they answer back with "what kind of bass were you looking for" I would be a little concerned

Stickers, even uncool ones, add a lot of mojo.

"But I will provide all details and photos via e-mail if you are interested, in a mass email".

what he doesn't tell you is he gets paid for collecting email addresses for spamming purposes....

I flagged. Normally I don't but something is not right with this post. I think Amimbari has the right of it.

You know I was looking for a black bass with uncool stickers and a place to play for free sounds like Canada is the place to be. See this thread Band needed...
for further explanation
