If the upper case type won't convince you of the awesome value that this bass represents, nothing will.

The nirv, I tell you! THE NURV!!!1!

So it's that much money because it's authenticated that Jaco NEVER played it, because they went to West Marine and bought boat varnish and his roadie signed it.

They should include a year's supply of Tootsie Roll suckers . . .

Wow! That's gonna sit there for a long time!

I just GOTTA watch that auction.

Amazing.

The seller had me... at 'comic'.

I don't think you guys are being fair to the bass in this auction. After all, it is "1/1 documentated".

 

[Topkat13]

He probably just put it in his listing.

You’ve got to admit, the asking price does make these $15 Jaco signature stickers look pretty attractive though…

...but didn't Jaco need four?

THIS IS NOT JACO'S ORIGINAL BASS, AND NOT A FENDER RELIC BASS:
IT IS A REINCARNATION OF JACO'S ORIGINAL 1962 FRETLESS JAZZ BASS of DOOM.

Inflation starting to bite...

 

[DrBnz]

It would look better with a relic job done on it, don't ya think?

 

[Sparky Mark]

On a serious-ish note; if the epoxy neck varnish was so essential, why does it look like it's been sanded off from the back of the neck?

Also, I wonder whether the price is a typo? Why $133,000 rather than $130,000? Both are ridiculous I know but the extra $3000 doesn't make sense to me. It might be of interest to someone at $13,000 perhaps?

Bummer. I just paid $135000.00 for mine.
