The first few live shots had to be from Warped tour 2011 as the bass was that "clean" looking and as I said previously it had 1 knob then, which it has one know. When I saw them the guitar player was also playing the wine red studio, so yeah that was 3 years ago in August so he really put some wear on that thing in 34 months.

A few more - where you can also see a 75 precision in the back and a custom shop 1962 strat in orange tangerine.
I can't be the only one that sees the absurdity of this auction at its current levels can I?

No i think the price is ridiculous, there not even a one hit wonder type band, overall a band that saw mid level mediocre "fame" if that. There is fans though and thats what is driving the price.
What are they new? $800 I think. I would pay $300 for it in that state with the hardcase. The neck looks good and I would throw some knobs on it and play it as is. I like the wear, its honest wear probably from the guy heavily sweating and it soaking in threw chips that caused it to lift, along with touring all over the place in different temps,etc.

There is better mojo on offer for better value IMHO but yes
An example is that you can buy a late 70s P-bass for about that these days. The '75 seem to go for about $1500-1600

That is one forceful note! It illustrates the by-line for BASSPLAYER magazine… "Dig Deeper"
