I like how the bridge & tuners were painted over. Real classy.

Why, lord, why?

 

[rustynuts]

Looks like he used a drill to cut the body.

 

[Polfuste]

this "bass" deserves an award: UGLIEST BASS OF THE DAY

 

[bhass]

might be ground wire that is exposed, not safe*, YOU FIX that

:scowl:

 

[Spector_Ray]

That monstrosity isn't even worth the listing fee and he want's $66.50 for it.

 

[Vakmere]

Classic..........needs to be carbon dated for authenticity

 

[bongomania]

I'm one of those losers that can always find some redeeming value in a bass no matter how big a POS it might be, but this thing is brutal

The ad says "parts bass" but I don't know if it even has any parts that are salvagable ...

+1 on both counts.

 

[sleepy_monkey]

Someone please burn that and put it out of it's misery

 

[lousybassplayer]

They're great basses, I have 2 of 'em.

No pics, no basses.

For some reason, I was reminded of this.

Prince Humperdinck: First things first, to the death.
Westley: No. To the pain.
Prince Humperdinck: I don't think I'm quite familiar with that phrase.
Westley: I'll explain and I'll use small words so that you'll be sure to understand, you warthog faced buffoon.
Prince Humperdinck: That may be the first time in my life a man has dared insult me.
Westley: It won't be the last. To the pain means the first thing you will lose will be your feet below the ankles. Then your hands at the wrists. Next your nose.
Prince Humperdinck: And then my tongue I suppose, I killed you too quickly the last time. A mistake I don't mean to duplicate tonight.
Westley: I wasn't finished. The next thing you will lose will be your left eye followed by your right.
Prince Humperdinck: And then my ears, I understand let's get on with it.
Westley: WRONG. Your ears you keep and I'll tell you why. So that every shriek of every child at seeing your hideousness will be yours to cherish. Every babe that weeps at your approach, every woman who cries out, "Dear God! What is that thing," will echo in your perfect ears. That is what to the pain means. It means I leave you in anguish, wallowing in freakish misery forever.

 

[MooseLumps]

I'd stand on that.

 

[firstbase]

Darn. Anyone know if they make a left hand version?

 

[notforrobots]

What the hell is that thing? How high was the guy when he cut it up like that?

my new bass

 

[robkphoto]

Looks like someone got a dremel for Xmas and decided to try it out on his bass after 2 bottles of everclear and some acid.

 

[stflbn]

At least he's willing to ship worldwide.


And I wonder if anyone will chime in soon wondering if it's a 'real' vintage instrument or a bogus copy.

[Ampeg SVT]

It's like someone threw up on a piece of wood.

 

[ausf]

I'm glad he didn't waste time taking the strings off to paint it.

I guess I think of picking up after my dog as collecting 'vintage' now.

 

[ProfGumby]

I am afraid this bass needs to be put out of its misery.

I think it has been put out of it's misery. What we see here is it's zombie corpse....

And this has to be the most overpriced, laughable piece of garbage ever sold in the ebay garbage sale.....

 

[wvbass]

Looks like he used a drill to cut the body.

That's exactly what it looks like. Wow.

We get one of these threads pretty regularly, but wow. At least it wasn't some late sixties P bass this time.
