There isn't anything wrong with them.
I thought the washtub bass was kinda funny.
The ibanez ad...well, that thing looks pretty rough for not being abused.

Lots of sun in the CA desert.
This is hilarious. The dude selling his time traveling guitar from the 80's that he learned how to play on in the 60's now doesn't even play guitar. It's there in the ad, too.

And here's a CL post warning about the guy:

Beer, meth, or bath salts?
And in another one of his ads:

I've read most compare Fender to Ford, but I'm guessing the seller here disagrees.

Bonus: Actually looks like a nice bass if someone is interested in it.

I really am tempted to give this guy a call and set up an "audition." Methinks it would be quite entertaining. He might even be a good drummer. But I suppose I'd be too old and balding for him.

It's true. Not only am i a killer drummer, i'm a total sellout who would do anything to make it.
Fake my own death? No problem. Media loves that ****. I could pretend to hold all of you hostage. ****, i don't even have to pretend. I could **** your girlfriend and fake an orgasm. I don't care. If it gets me famous, and secondarily, you, then i'll do it. I dont' care. And tell your girlfriend she needs a shave.
What else? I would stage a live exorcism where Kurt Cobain scores smack through me. I can speak in tounges. I can wear wax lips. I would dress in drag. I would overdose several times on consecutively dumber drugs (tylenol, smack, lysol, hand sanitizer, pot... wait, can you OD on pot? I keep trying).
Besides being a world-class ****** (its a living), Im a ****ing amazing drummer. Because i can do what pretty much all other drummers don't know how to do: i know how play with dynamics (like being soft when you're not screaming... like NOT overplaying, and definitely NOT destroying your hearing, or breaking sticks. I do NOT flake out and show up late or not at all and finally, not borrow money from you to pay for my drug and alcohol habit(s). But i do need your car for a few days. ha ha.
Irregardless, if you understand the kind of dedication it takes to be this kind of nutball, then you'll push all these other guys who practice all day on those dumb rubber pads and rip off licks from everyone and instead, call me. Cuz i am the ****. I'm not a fat, balding ****** either. So if you are, that's okay, but maybe you should find a guy who wants to play Rush covers. I want to play with guys who "get it". If you don't "get it" and don't get what I mean by that, you should look deeply within yourself and then PayPal me 10 bucks to have me explain it.
Anyway, so yeah, i can play anything, I can play rock, metal, funk, hip-hop and all the derivations of gay/house/club/bass n' drum/electronica/ (which i add just for a kind of dramatic pause before i say... NO I WON'T CUZ THERE"S NO DRUMMER IN THOSE YOU ****ING IDIOTS! DJ'S ARE NOT MUSICIANS!!!! HELLO!), oh yeah, and if you want me to play reggae, punk, or you are one of those screeeming douchebags angry about your sedate day job and expensive rehearsal space and Les Paul Custom signed by like, who the **** knows, I really really want to hang out with you and drink your alcohol, do tons of your coke and then leave and never come back. Or **** your girlfriend who thinks you're a jackass.
Please respond with a naked picture of your girlfriend, paypal me money, or send me what you think the dumbest name in the world is for a band. Today i though of one that is pretty bad: Yeast Inspection.
If you are insanely talented, immensely funny, incredibly smart, and wildly rich, do you have a sister who is a nymphomaniac and can prescribe drugs? Cuz we could be family, dude. If not, a really good band with original songs and un-anal type musicians who aren't hippies or rawk-star-wanna-be's are all welcome.

Yeah I bet this guy would be cool to hang out with. This reminds me a lot of a craigslist ad I wrote a couple years ago when looking for a band. In a lot of cases people would rather have someone who is hilarious and fun to hang out with than someone who is just an amazing musician without those endearing qualities. I'm sure this dude is getting tons of replies.
