Anyone want to play good music? (pacifica)

ELP, Yes, Genesis, King Crimson, Jethro Tull, Pink Floyd, Camel, Renaissance, Moody Blues, The Nice, Rush, Deep Purple, Procol Harem, Chicago, Robin Trower, Cream?

Does anyone want to play real music anymore( and that's assuming anyone reading this ever has which is assuming a lot), or is everyone in this degenerated, joke of a musical scene area stuck to sucking on their punk rock baby bottles, playing thrash metal or whatever garbage that has no more than 3 chords, stuck in a stupefied fantasy convincing themselves that they know how to play music at all because some wasted immature junior high school drop outs yell out from time to time in some kiddies sleaze joint to be noticed and verify they're still conscious hanging out at their favorite drug hang out where they can feel comfortable because there are other people as stupid and trashed out as they are thinking they're rockin' out when they can barely talk coherently and are operating on one brain cell that's also damaged.

Looking for a bass player who looks like they belong in a band, even if they can't play well. Really we need someone who's more worried about their 28" waste line and eye liner than their girlfriend is. We're all about the looks because our music is un-inspiring and formulaic commercial rock, somewhere in the realm of Poo Poo Lighters to Sweet and Sour. We're looking for someone unemployed, has several children they don't pay child support for, is in default on their student loans (scratch that... having someone with some college education may make us feel more dumber), and who is in a situation where they can tour a lot. Please be ready to go days without showers, sleep in our overcrowded van, and eat $1 burritos for weeks at a time as we tour to big cities like. . . Brownwood, Wichita Falls, and perhaps even Tyler if we're lucky.

If this sounds like you, email us your best Zoolanderistic selfies along with the gear you play at Guitar Center and copies of at least a year's worth of unemployment checks. Please just don't send us an email asking questions, we are not what you would call "readers". We look forward to ignoring your heart felt emails and making fun of the way you look in your pictures. If we think you are pretty enough, we will send you the link to some of our tunes. We're here to judge you, not you judge whether or not our music is worth your best Blue Steel impersonation.

look forward to hearing from you.

...and if you follow the link in that one, you go to the Ebay page with, according to the pics, that exact guitar which is in Princeton NJ and an asking price of $4900. I'm half-tempted to call the guy here and ask to come by and see the LP, just to see what happens.

I see a lot of that stuff on my local area's version of CL. I'm in central KY and a guy was selling a truck worth $10,000 for around $6k because he was in the military and had just moved to California. He said he'd deliver it anywhere in the US and if you didn't like it, he'd refund you and pay to deliver it back.

Ignoring the obvious, that if he is giving it away so cheap, he should find a good buyer within a few blocks of his house, it is so obviously a scam as to be comical. That site actually allows people to make comments on posts selling stuff and there are a lot of folk that call out the scams. How about a Like New tractor for $2500 that is worth closer to $25,000? One commenter said "Scammer! The tires are worth more than that.".

This sort of thing is actually really common.

I personally only want to play bad music. That settles things.

1960s Japan made electric bass guitar (deer park)
[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]




[Invalid or Expired Link Removed][Invalid or Expired Link Removed][Invalid or Expired Link Removed][Invalid or Expired Link Removed][Invalid or Expired Link Removed]
condition: good

1960s unknown Japan made electric bass guitar, its a right hand (standard / normal) guitar but it was strung lefty, but that's just a matter of swapping the strings back around or putting on a fresh set.
it works but the knobs are a little scratchy, which is to be expected since the instrument is around 50 years old. the case is original or at least bought at the same time as the instrument, it shows some wear and has a lot of duct tape on it but still doesn't look too bad.
price is $500 FIRM, if your not willing to pay that I have no problem keeping it as a wall hanging.
call [Invalid or Expired Link Removed] if interested NO TEXT MESSAGES thank your for looking :)

No, no. I love mine, but don't think I would pay retail, or recommend anybody do that. Ever. Is it still a bidding war if people are rushing to give you half of your asking price?

Now, for $120 on CL, no problem. For $250 on CL, problem.
