Oh, there are some words that come to mind.

Word

Oh, and you only get to see one pic.

What do you mean? There are several pictures if you scroll down

Got it. It's an interesting instrument, but I would like to meet the person willing to part with that much coin for a bass.

 

[Murdoc_420]

Meh, $10,000 would get it duplicated and the other $75,000 could cover the cost of that poopy kit car.

 

[MD]

I don't have that kind of coin, but if I did, it wouldn't be spent on that.

 

[Gaolee]

I would play something that looked like that. I wouldn't spend that much money on it, though. I may have no taste, but I'm cheap.

 

[Les Ismoor]

It's cool, but it ain't 85 Grand cool.

 

[wcriley]

It's for "collector's", not someone like me.

 

[paranoid30]

I was quite surprised by the pictures, I've never seen anything like this bass. Although I do play a Rickenbacker, I didn't know they mad a bass like this.

Then I got to the pictures with the lights on.

This bass has lights.

Ok.

 

[Anachronism]

There might just be a rich collector willing to buy it. Regular 4005 models are going for at least 6-7k.

 

[Salicete]

It has lights.....oh, never mind, I thought you said something about "light bass," and the crowd who always asks "weight?" Would come out of the woodwork.

 

[lancimouspitt]

I think I would by a house first.

I just want to know what's going through someone's head right before they place what they perceive to be an instrument worth 85k on cement, leaning against a bloody trashcan!! Not to mention the 1st pic with those guitars leaning against the hood of a sports car. Is it just me that cringes everytime I see a picture like this?

 

[gln1955]

The asking price is just an attention getter. You can make an offer. It would be interesting to see what kind of an offer they'd accept.

No, I'm not gonna do it.

Arsehole-puckering if you ask me..

Took the words right out of my mouth!

Is it weird that I'm upset about the fact that there's no free shipping?
