That poor bass...
At least it's in good hands now.
It always bothesr me when people throw their instruments around and don't take care of them; those people take it for granted while some people aren't even fortunate enough to afford or have access to musical instruments.

Me too, I hate seeing instruments damaged. The Who smashing the guitars and drums was lame to me. :crying:

Only exception is John Belushi in Animal House- too funny. (At least is was an acoustic guitar, not a lowender):p
 
You can tell I dig rosewood fingerboards:

Unfortunately, all I have of my basses is this one picture I took yesterday with my cell phone camera. It's one real piece of crap. The picture itself is of all the instruments I own. Which ain't that big a number.

The bass guitars are on the right.

[Invalid or Expired Link Removed]

The one furthest at the right is a Dean Evo Bass that was originally fretted, but I took the frets out, gave the neck a paint job and I had a fretless.

The other bass guitar next to it is an SX Ursa that I got yesterday. Nothing all that special. Really good bass guitar, though.

Luckily it still plays well. It's still in great shape other than the dings and marks. (as far as I can tell anyway)

I hope in this particular case definition of “Frustration” was, a nicely DISCOUNTED PRICE to its current owner.

$400 for the bass with a hard case and a 3 guitar stand seemed reasonably discounted to me though I'm sure many people here have gotten better bargains in the past. I have never found myself frustrated by the bass or the purchase ;)
 
Excellent looking pics of basses and bike tOtOm.

I no longer have the basses originally posted since Ive gone back to just playing BC Rich's. So heres my new and permanent two. Took a few tries to get a pic with the graphics on both visible as theyre only that way from right angles and with right light angle, lol.
 
Here are a few of my favoite basses. These are Scroll basses. I also have a 1965 "beat to &^%$" precision bass that I really like but no photo yet. I will post one later.
