The Devil Bass - Just $12,000! CL content...

Way to expensive for a face on the back. Oh and I do see a face on the back push your chair away from your screen and it will show is it Satan? I don't see any horns just looks a face of someone with dark glasses and a frown on the face

the total serial # is 16059666. That a far cry from a serial that is 666.

Face? What face?

The scariest thing about this Jazz Bass is the price!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! $12,000.

The Craigslist ad has already been taken down. So like, whatever.
 
Are emo kids even a thing anymore? At my local GC where I was a guitar slinger I stopped seeing them come in as much around 2012. REALLY don’t miss workin there.

Haha, good question. I imagine tweens are still surly and angst-ridden...I don't know what to call them though.

Speaking of the "Devil" bass..
Back in 83' my buddy got Ozzy's Bark at the Moon on cassette. He picked me up so we could go to the park and listen to it. I got in the car and saw that he had an upside-down cross hanging from his rear view mirror (of his Toyota mini-pickup). I asked him what that was all about and he said he was now a "Satanist" but had to hide the cross under his seat so his mom wouldn't find it. :meh: That's the kind of person who would buy this bass...:banghead:

Quote from quick search of Terre Haute:
Why does Terre Haute smell?
We do stink. Not only did Terre Haute suffer a lousy image, it had a lousy reality, too. The proximate cause was an 1886 sewer treatment system that spewed hydrogen sulfide — rotten egg — at every point where sewage was stored. The system collected sewage and held onto it, as if it were a savings bond.

Dosen't sound like the "Original Sin city" to me, but does sound like a crappy place to live.
Rotten eggs? That’s not sewage, my friend. That’s sulfur, as in “fire and brimstone.” The smell of hell. What more proof do you need that this thing is legit?!?

Really?? Really??? Really???

Whatever.

I once owned a bass christened as " the hands of God bass" ( not by me) because the figuring on the wood appeared to be two hands ...palms up... Matching at the thumb.

I'm posting on my phone and do not have a pic readily available.

It was much more obvious in pictures and much much more obvious than this...

And I sold it for much less....

Was I an idiot???
