Stoner/Doom Bassists #64 - sensitive artsy emo chicks

Just ordered this guitar from GC used. I got a thing for the old Cardinal line of Basses, even if they are only 32 inchers, but never paid attention to the guitars in that line and have been wanting a humbucker guitar again. So with the coil taps and the phase swtich, the body contours, double- cutaway, and Matsumoku factory made kind of pulled me in. Plus it was only $199 and and you can't beat they ship used guitars for only like $23 bucks. Can't wait to get my paws on it.

That thing will rock hard. I recently got a Matsumoku Vantage, and it's a sweet guitar, very well made. I'd hazard a guess that one will be as well.

Great nab!

Yeah I was thinking of yours when I landed it because of the headstocks. I saw they were going for double or more that on ebay too. And I like this was the higher end model with the body contours. After I listened to a few youtube vids I was sold. I stripped down that USA Peavey Predator that was spray painted last night. The middle pup isn't firing and the clambake was a sophisticated artist, he actually sprayed the guitar with primer before spray painting, never bothered to take the neck off. Man the neck is in killer shape too barely end fret marks. I will give an attempt at stripping the paint with the graffiti remover if not it is getting parted out on ebay.

Best of luck on the stripping, that's a PITD to do.
 
Hello smokers of mystical herbs,
Well it's definitely done with me and my old band. Not to get into specifics but let's just say I am an overall non-violent person and the thoughts of choking him until he's out of breath fill me with glee. I am not riding on anyone's power trip.
 
Hey everybody. I'll go back and catch up in a second. Wanted to share some good times first.

NBD!

Stoked, to say the least. :bassist:
