So, I'm not the seller, and I get what he/she wants to accomplish by posing the bass with a model (lovely bass, too), but man, this is what happens when inexperienced photographers try to do 'sexy' DIY shots. What do you think? I can't get over how exploitative the shots seem... but maybe that's what they're going for. (And yes, I suppose it's possible the seller is the model herself.) |

So, yes, girl comes with the bass. But then again, he states that: the Volume knob is locked and does not turn..Everything works perfect...
so I think he's very confused. |

I would remove the bunions on her feet.
I would love to own the bass but too pricey. |
