Looks like !@#$@#$~. Plays and sounds like a dream - I tune it every six months, whether it needs it or not. I've had it since 1982. Feel free to call it ugly
What you got?

Here you go. Here's my 73 P. Btw, Kevin Kaufman (who restored Jaco's bass of doom) did the fret level and coating on the bare wood portions of the fretboard. I previously had a 72 Tele that he modded. Wish I still had it. Don't know about ugly, but sure is well worn.
i dig me some beat up basses
It's served me well. The headstock took a beating on cymbals. I still have the original bridge and pickup guards. I don't know how they made pickups back then, but the new ones just don't sound the same.

No way is that ugly, just been through a few battles. If it showed up at the house, all my basses would call it "Sir" because they'd know that Grandpa had arrived.
Hahahahah! I was just givin you the gears.
Tried to photo my UGLY bass, the pictures actually made it look better!

A lowly Squier, but 15 yrs of being played and beaten
Looks much worse in real life
Pic just shows the headstock. You're man enough to keep the real logo on it. Good man.
Yeah, the body is metal flake. The scratches disappeared in the photo
And yep, its a Squier. It gets played a lot
You're almost half way there. But mine was that ugly when I bought It.
Mine only look ugly when I'm holding them
It's permissible to call your own bass ugly. You just can't say that about another forum member's bass. For example...I own five basses and every one of them is ugly. The irony is that none of my basses are ugly enough to include in this thread.
