I want that bass, it's quite obvious it's a babe magnet

[Mr. Foxen]

I'd guess the logic is if you like ugly basses, you'll correspondingly like ugly birds.

[Deep Thought]

It's a lovely bass, it doesn't really need the Old Party, it's quite capable of selling itself. The writeup is [b]A BIT OTT[/b] as well.

It all smacks of trying too hard to me, both the naff photos and the write up.

What bass?

I've seen better & worse examples of this type of selling. I see it didn't sell

[AndyTravis]

I'd love that Ricky if it didn't stink of muff.

He's b-a-a-a-ck ... and so's his girlfriend.

If I was rating the extent to which this tactic improves his chances of selling a bass, I'd say somewhere between Slim and None At All.








And Slim just left town ...

Wow, that is some upper arm muscle definition. Must have one of these:

She's in every one of them.

I do like the Pervey Classic 50 ...

[SS73]

That Zoom/enlarge option really does help, after all you don't want to get caught out.

Central heating needs to go up a notch by the looks of things...

[LawrenceH]

Ha! The Peavey Classic is definitely the best, by which I obviously mean wrongest. Though these disparaging comments about the woman are a bit harsh - if you look at the guy's website you'll probably agree he's actually done quite well for himself there...considering

[leschirons]

Seriously cheesy listings but, I think she's quite attractive. Certainly no space hopper.

Haha, is that for real? I saw it on South Park but didn't know it was an actual parody!

She looks like Dug Pinnick from Kings X.
