Calling all average bass players! This recently showed up on a classifieds site that serves my region:

Needed: ..Needed..Bass Player to jam with for fun and for likely gigs... St Marys area or fairly near by.. Doing older classic rock 60s+70s..Looking for Bassist 45 years old +..Influences include Moody Blues, Steppenwolf, Eric Burdon, Hendrix, CCR and others of that style and era...Some original tunes..I am a experienced Guitar/Singer....Average Bass Player is fine, as I feel that Musicians being able to work well together is more important then how talented one is...Contact me with phone Number or ask for mine...Thanks..

Man, I would totally answer this dude's ad if it was a geographic fit. I'm the right age, can appreciate his musical choices, and I've only been playing a little over a year ... so this would be ideal. I used to live in PA too, although on the other side of the state.

I LOVE this thread! Keep 'em coming :p

I am looking to buy several guitars. I am mainly interested in buying USA gibbons, fenders, jacksons, charvels, taylors, martins, guild, prs, tom anderson, parker, musician, suhr, esp, james tyler, gretsch, warriors, etc. I am also interested in others guitars and amps as well. Im really looking for a music man jpx-7 bfr with a quilted maple top, and piezo. Please if you can send pictures of your guitar and what you would sell it for. No phone number in your email = no response. I am a serious buyer and i pay fair prices and i am very reliable. I will probably be able to pick up depending on my schedule and your location.

Location: Jacksonville, FL

Your listing says you are looking to buy USA Gibbons. There are some Gibbons at the zoo but they are not from the USA. I believe most of them are from Borneo and I don't think they are for sale. I would also check whether you require a special permit to buy and sell Gibbons.

I've got a Gorilla amp I'll sell you as long as you promise to take good care of him. His name is Stanley and he doesn't need a license.

Location: The Zoo

This is quite possibly the funniest thing I've read all day.
 
How to basically guarantee no one will respond to your ad - no real product description, no address or phone number, and post a pic of random album covers in your 'equipment for sale' ad (note that this is listed as a dealer, not private party)...

Something doesn't seem right.
This may be a true Gibson but knock offs are abundant.
A few years ago I ordered a Gibson guitar copy as a wall hanger(was way cheap, looks fantastic but plays like crap).
During my email correspondence, the sales girl asked if I wanted "Gibson" on the headstock or something else.

Just saw one from a guy trying to sell some heavy duty, bass guitar cables. I quote "and they look cool too, chicks will love their manly appearance"

Um.....I've never had a woman comment on any of my gear, manly or otherwise, much less my cable.
