shizznit Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 What a bizzare remark to make on an auction? That aside, nice looking Peavey Cirrus copy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Foxen Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 I initially thought it was rudeness, then I reread it and realised that statement makes no sense at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

brensabre79 Posted March 14, 2012 Author Share Posted March 14, 2012 Yeah I'm not sure about that one, I was going to bid just so I could just pretend to play bass but he appears to have outsmarted me! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

paul_5 Posted March 14, 2012 Share Posted March 14, 2012 "PICKUP ONLY - NO COURIER - TOO MANY DAMAGED GUITARS - NOT EVEN INSURED HELPS" So am I bidding for just the pickup or the whole bass (assuming that I pass the audition)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jayben Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 I personally find it really offensive to mime artists, people make good money to pretend they can play an instrument! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ras52 Posted March 15, 2012 Share Posted March 15, 2012 (edited) To be fair, I expect someone previously 'won' it, came around and noodled on it then said they didn't want it. Other than that, I'm grateful for the extra info. If the pre-Xmas accident had been in Denmark I'd be all over this.
