The Krappy Bassists Klub

Congratulations on the new baby, Owlman. Wow, you sure take this owl business to the max! You need a little owl inlay on your headstock. Pleasure to be neighbors with you and Pete on the Krappy users page. So who's in this club, now: just two verticals and two horizontals? All orientations accepted here, right?

Pete, I like the shotgun case idea. I hope the owner of the actual gun-shaped bass, as shown on the Krappy page, has done likewise. Too good an opportunity to pass up!

The FretLesPaul swam around in the full-size gigbag I originally put it in. Then I ordered the bag that Ibanez makes specifcially for their 'MIKRO' bass. Fits the Krappy perfectly.
Even tho' the Krappy is full-scale bass, and the Mikro is like 3/4 size or something.

Hey, down the line, maybe we can organize the 1st annual Krappy Owners jam session and clambake. What do you think?
We can hold it out by some dumpsters, somewhere in the middle of New Jersey! Bring the kids. Bring the krap! Maybe, Piotr, you'd fly in from Poland for such a spectacular event ? :)

Oh man, a Krappy User's Convention would be pretty fun, whooooo knew, we could make Hackettstown NJ a tourist stop yet (that's where Kevin resides)! :D

Any orientation (vertical, horizontal or diagonal) is certainly welcome here

FIENDISH IDEA #629: The idea just occurred to me, a short documentary about Krappy Guitars, PBS style! :D
 
Krappy, Krappy, Krappy!

You can hear it on the song "Czerwony pas" (krappy kover of a Polish folk song) at Link Removed - it's the distorted track. I think I used the three-string neck.

And some guy who isn't me playing it:

If his band ever gets famous I'm gonna use that photo to blackmail him.

It's not just krappy. IT'S UGLY TOO!!!!
 
I noticed that there are a few headless designs on Krappy's site, does anyone know how those are tuned, as few of them have no machines on either end of the instrument that I can see and the websitr doesn't alow one to click on the pics to make them larger.:hmm:
