Awesome!
I wonder if he's a TB member?

If he's not, he better be soon... and mods please consider opening a new forum: Basses in Self-Defense.
Ah... had to be a P Bass, massively dangerous weapons in the right hands.
That's it I'm ordering 3 Glarry's as home defense items in case I can't get to the gun.
I like how they showed the dents on the bass 
I'd love to see the dents on the getaway car!
Which bass is best for self-defense?
And so it goes ... never bring a knife to a bass fight.

I like how he, for a split second, thought to grab the cheapest bass he had.
i just told my wife. look at this bass its a signature series. they wont make these for very long. so its a collector item ...
There is ample evidence that supports basses being used to melee...
That guy is a legend. Getting clubbed with a Pbass would definitely do some damage
And if the only Bass he had to grab was a Hofner Violin Bass, the bad guys just might be driving around in his stolen Mercedes.
Lucky for the bad guys he didn’t have the Mothman Bass. Otherwise, there might have there may have been some bloodshed involved.

I wonder which bass I would pick to defend myself?
I think that I would go G&L LB-100. It has a heavy ash body with a 6-bolt neck joint. It just feels solid. Either that, or one of my Yamaha BBs.
