Dwayne Glanton of central Arkansas is the builder.

http:dwaynesthisandthat.us

He built this bass for himself and used it for about
three years. He then decided to play double bass
and built one for himself. He decided to sell this
bass to me for $90 with a like new TKL hard shell
case.

It is all figured curly maple and it has a laminated
neck through body with purple hart fretboard. The
pickups are EMG Select. It plays and sounds first
rate. It weighs 9 lb 8 oz.

That was the end of it. Free Fender P for me!


Interestingly, as far as I know if they would have asked you to send it back you would have had to.

I expect most of us would have returned the bass upon receipt. Bad mojo keeping something like that.

Wow...I no longer am proud of my 1977 Jazz's $1400 price tag. And $1400 is already below market value.

I used to work at a pawn shop back in 2010 and I bought a Tobias Basic 5 string (Gibson-make) that came out for sale which was in excellent condition. The store manager (my boss) let me buy it for for $220. I then resold it on eBay months later for $1600. I would have kept it if it were a 6-string.
