andy67 Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 god! that looks like its been in a road accident! worth it to someone though... Quote
The Burpster Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Looks like some bassist did a Pete Towshend or jimi Hendrix on it.... How odd. Quote
kevbass Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 methinks anyone bidding on this is after the neck and not a lot else Quote
budget bassist Posted April 25, 2008 Posted April 25, 2008 Jesus, how pissed off do you be to do that??!! " Q: what the heck happened to the bass? Apr-23-08 A: you got me, That is how I got it. " Whatever mate, why would you buy that and then just sell it on? Quote
The Burpster Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 [quote name='budget bassist' post='185550' date='Apr 25 2008, 08:09 PM']Whatever mate, why would you buy that and then just sell it on?[/quote] Actually you maybe looking too deep here.... he's obviously a dealer of sorts (check out his other stuff) and my guess is that he bough it as a project and then when he found out how much the bits would be (Status are not cheap in the US) he's had a coronery and decided to sell it on ... You can see teh impact mark where its hit teh deck after being swung by the neck..... Actualy I'm impressed how little teh carbon chassis appears to have suffered That being said a close inspection might reveal teh truth! Quote
budget bassist Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 ah yeah i suppose you're right, but even so, what maniac does that to something that expensive!!?? And you'd be surprised.... carbon that thick is probably about as strong as steel of similar thickness... Quote
stingrayfan Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 (edited) Does it come with instructions? Edited April 26, 2008 by stingrayfan Quote
ped Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 I like the carbon effect pickup cover... Where can I get me one of those? (except here, obviously) Quote
SJA Posted April 26, 2008 Posted April 26, 2008 Derek Forbes says he broke his graphite thru-neck Vigier passion 4 string by jumping on it at a Spear of Destiny gig- the body wings broke off and he had to have it rebuilt by Vigier. Quote
