Upgrade? The dude burned his bass!

[bolophonic]

Pure ineptitude.

 

[FrenchBassQC]

I must admit that is the only one I've liked .

Same here, looks cool.

 

[tb-player]

I kinda dig it.

 

[lordradish]

At least he didn't burn the neck.

 

[Savage_Dreams]

ignoring the reasoning, it looks cool. and not overpriced.

 

[MultiScaleMale]

I think he's confusing burning and torrefaction.

 

[Mickey666]

Sounds like a stupid idea, but I've seen way stupider/uglier finishes come from some pretty high end makers.
And as far as that particular model goes, it looks better than most of the factory finishes.

"This bass is in so much better shape than a brand new one"

Yes! Burnt instruments are SO much better than the non-burnt kind...

Smokin deal for sure!

Roasting was soo Spring/ Summer...

If it was tOne wood to begin with and burning it removed the O then it's now simply tne wood. Not sure if that's a plus or a minus.

You are wrong, It's ''Tne Wd''

hey, I was gonna post that!

Gotta be quicker! LOL

However, great minds and all that, right?

 

[soxhats]

Is this bass good for metal?

"...The cobwebs, water marks, and dried cat turd really make this (now vintage) bass sound better than new - though totally sounding old-skool, and vintage, but new, but vintage."









It's only a matter of time.

I don't hate that idea. We'd all enjoy a video review.

 

[swarfrat]

The roasting is not because of the fire finish, but for claiming it's better than new and trying to make it sound sciencey. For that, he's an idiot at best, and a charlatan at worst. Even if nobody falls for his reasoning, it was still an attempt to deceive.
