Stoner/Doom Bassists Thread, Part 90: Maxed Out

Just bought a guitar from craigslist for super cheap. $25! Guy said it didn't work, and didn't want to bother. The electronics look good, but it's definitely missing the input jack. Is it difficult to put one in? It looks like I'd just solder the ground or something to it. I don't know. It has 2 loose wires, and the entire input jack is gone, but other than that, it looks mint. Seems like an easy fix for me! What do you guys think? Just buy one and stick it in there?

Oh, and here's the link to the guitar. Gets great reviews! And as a 2nd guitar for a bassist, I wasn't spending a whole lot on it, so it sounds like it should really be pretty good for me!

My buddy bought an even cheaper model on clearance last year. He replaced the pickups, got it a decent setup and it played pretty great.
 
Put wheels on my 810 last night, hopefully they last longer than 6 feet out of the space...at least get me to the show and back.

Also return of the ugliest grill cloth in the galaxy. Dont plan on gigging with it on, its just for travel. NAVAHOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

Got back from the Blues Pills gig. I think I might change opinion on this band. Really good show, and the girl - just wow, not only is she really easy on the eyes, but damn, she can sing.
The whole gig should have been called an Orange show. Everyone and their mothers were using Orange amps and cabs. Except one guitarist, but he had a Matamp head.

Blues Pills' bassist had a sweet rig. He played a Rick through two Orange AD200s, one with a 410 and one with a 115 cab.

Oh, and there was this band called Spiders. Dissapointingly long and dissapointingly boring show.
Oh well, at least 2 bands of 3 were good.
