Nice bass trashed by a stupid kid

[TheFantod]

Gotta quote Col. Kurtz on this one..."The horror, the horror!"

Holy Sheep S**t!
Rainbow's guitar player was Ritchie Blackmore, who has almost always played a Strat. What could he possibly have to do with the atrocity you perpetrated on that poor Peavey? (and I don't even like the damn things!) Was this some kind of attempt at a Rick Allen or Heather Mills sig model?

You are completely correct, I was thinking Uli Jon Roth...

 

[Baird6869]

Carl Thompson, you ain't!

 

[MyWifeBoris]

Oh the stupid things we do when we're young.

I'm glad I'm not- Hey, wait.

I'm STILL young. D:

I gotta go protect my basses from myself. D:

 

[M.R. Ogle]

Oh, relax... it's an old Peavey... they're for sale all day on the 'bay at Squier prices. Not a bad bass to experiment on.

I hope you had fun, and enjoyed it. Maybe learned some things.

Holy **** was that funny!!! lol

If I had a time machine, I would go back and cut a switch for you.

 

[KramerBassFan]

Cool!

A bass is a tool - a piece of wood strung with wound metal wires that oscillates over magnets surrounded by copper wire.

A tool. Hack away, matey!

I personally would take the neck & other usable parts and order a suitable warmoth body to give it a new lease on life like what I did with my first bass recently.

 

[lkngro]

Oh man...the only thing I've done to my bass is tape some Mutts comic strips to it, and I thought that was stupid for being 15 years old.

 

[VincentGrim]

Awesome, I'd play it

 

[BlackMetalAkaz]

I used to take the stickers off cd cases as I bought them and stick them all over my first guitar, then one day I peeled them all off. Really regret doing that because it was neat.

Steve Via?
Vai, my friend, nbd.

I've seen worse...don't worry.

after the initial lack of words it suddenly dawned on me=that's what they make BONDO for,i'll bet a reman/custom shaped horn with countersunk screws would fix the majority of her then smooth her up with some Bondo and i always wanted a red T-40

Unfortunately that kid was me.

Ha! we were all there - I've ruined quite a number of jems in my life . . . i'm glad my memory is kinda shot!

 

[lowend range]

That's awesome. Well, at least you have a beater bass that you can thrash around and not worry.

 

[J.Nuno]

It looks like Sid from Toy Story became a bass player.

+1 Score!

I was visiting my parents recently (with my wife and son) and my mom said "hey are you ever going to take that guitar to your house?". Excited I unzipped the gigbag and found my bass from when I was 15. Thought you might enjoy....and yes I am embarrased.
Defretted,dehorned (no chance of playing sitting down), Steve Via handle that if you hold it the neck dives like you are using a metal detector, dremeled inlay, but those emg's were just the right size!

...and it still weighs 11lbs.

 

[Buchada Azeda]

Well, you can't say that it lacks mojo.
