Piece of crap Grabber

I'm just gonna throw this out there,who knows...In 1995 I had a Jackson and Gibson Grabber stolen from my drummers house in the metro Atlanta area. The Jackson was recovered a couple of weeks later.Unfortunately the Grabber didn't make it to the pawn shop with the Jackson. It was my first real bass and has a certain attachment as such. OK,here's the skinny...I cut it into a teardrop shape in the 70's and the final version was mahogany stain with pictures of Sandra Bullock pasted on it.The pickguard was painted gold.The Gibson logo was scraped off the headstock if I remember correctly.The bass was about as ugly as you'll find but it is part of my history nonetheless.The case has Dave Lee painted on it and it had a shoe string for a handle. I just thought I'd try here,we're a huge community and God only knows how far it's traveled since then. Shoot me a PM if you may have encountered her somewhere in your time. Thanks guys!
