the boy Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 My eyes, my eyes, its like an illusion. imagine there was a band in lord of the rings. The bassist would play this. Quote
Ghost Rider Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 (edited) This is a 1977-84 bass. It was a custom build for tattoo. Do a search for "tattoo fantasy island" Even his practice amp looked like an Ampeg 8 by 10 while he was knocking out those low grooves Edited June 10, 2012 by Ghost Rider Quote
jaydentaku Posted June 10, 2012 Posted June 10, 2012 Is that an optical illusion? The string spacing is partially dementing. Quote
discreet Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 What's the problem? It's 'very nice solid dark wood', after all. Seriously though, that's the worst thing I've ever seen, anywhere. It's beyond a joke.The fact that this can exist at all is profoundly depressing, as is the fact that someone thinks anyone with half a brain cell in working order would buy it. FIRE! FIRE!! AND LOTS OF IT!! Better start on tomorrow's meds right now! Eurghh! Filthy! Filthy and wrong!! Quote
rushbo Posted June 11, 2012 Posted June 11, 2012 That's a hundred miles of wrong right there. And yet I feel almost compelled to bid.... Quote

yorks5stringer Posted June 14, 2012 Posted June 14, 2012 It's a symptom of my advancing years that having noted the horror of the "Bass", I then wondered if they have a full set of the chairs and are they up for sale...? Quote

[/quote] Currently at £10 I think I'll have to go for the sniper bid option right at the very last second. I bet the guy who built this guitars nan has a tele shaped hole in her dining room table. She's stood there thinking what the ...........after she laid down the tea pot and a plate of scones and the whole lot fell through the table cloth and landed on the parque floor revealing the atrocity. Little bastard she exclaimed to Ethyl and Glenda who were really looking to their afternoon tea. Quote
