Show us your true road worn relic axe. Not the dress up one

Post your photo of your beautiful true road worn bass from the true scares, dings, bangs, and scratches. Not those make up one.

This music man stingray has been good to me for the past 13 years. There's sweat funk and blood in the fingerboard.

My Number One, 1981 G&L L2000E... Spent the first 28 years of her life playing 5 nights a week around Memphis and across the south. Pure mojo straight from the Crossroads, and she will kill anything that gets in her path... Click image for larger version
