Dom in Dorset Posted August 22, 2013 Author Share Posted August 22, 2013 I think you're all being too hard on it. This listing clearly says that it's in need of restoration, I'm sure that with new neck, body, hardware, electronics and strings you could have a seriously nice bass, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woodinblack Posted August 22, 2013 Share Posted August 22, 2013 Actually looks like a trophy plaque. Maybe someone won 'best pickup' award and someone put a neck on it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
