"JESUS CARVED BODY 5 STRINGS ELECTRIC GUITAR BASS 8748"

If Jesus did in fact carve the bass, then it's a steal!!! (Did he originally carve a
4-string and then make the strings multiply?)

I read in Jaco 4:12 that it was an SX 4 string and He modded it

John Paul Jones 3:16

For dog so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten bass, that whosoever believeth in it shall not flea, but have everlasting chops.

That thing is so epic that I'm tempted to buy it just for the epicness of it.

i know. I mean like who wouldn't want a bass that died and rose again after 3 days... and all for your sins. I always wanted my own personal jesusbass.

It's an Antoniotsai thing. Do a Google, then run away from it. Very fast.

Oh yeah the great Apostle Antoniotsai. Spreading the glorious word for all to hear. Didn't jesusbass appear to him in a vision and he was blind for 3 days.

from Beatles chapter 9

9:3 And as he gigged, he came near Damascus: and suddenly there shined round about him a light from heaven:
9:4 And he fell to the earth, and heard a voice saying unto him, Anthoniotsai, Anthoniotsai, why persecutest thou me?
9:5 And he said, Who art thou, Lord of Thunder? And the Lord said, I am Jesusbass whom thou persecutest: hard for thee to kick against the pricks.

and then he changed his name slightly to Antoniotsai, which means in translation "he who brings jesusbass to the world"

I bet that thing sounds sooo holy!

Anyone looking for a Sunday Morning Church bass?

You would thing a Jesus bass would be a 10 string, not 4, in memory of his disciples.

There were 12 disciples and 10 commandments not the other way around. I don't know if I'd have a string to commemorate Judas though. It might betray the bass

actually a 12 string...

11 of them would work great. The 12th would never quite be in tune, and would eventually just fall off.

Then it would be replaced by a string from the Moses bass.

I don't know how I feel about using Jesus as a thumb rest. The whole thing has a creepiness factor to it.

on a serious note the abalone cross inlays are a nice touch. I could see that on another custom bass...
