Krappy basses

I though the one string fretless upright I made was original - its not much more than a length of timber with a machinehead a keyhole plate for tailpiece, pieces of chopstick for bridge & nut and a cheapo piezo. However it turns out there are others like it. Oh well.

btw - its rather crap so I usually keep it hidden away and don't talk about it.

Their company manifesto rocks!

[quote]KRAPPY GUITARS--Krapmeister Kevin Siebold
relays the philosophy that guides our efforts:

Our instruments are built for frugal people
who aren't very concerned with regard to
quality, construction, materials, or safety.

The instruments are crafted from whatever
we find suitable. Pedigree of wood is not
a priority for us. We might get it from
a local hardware store, or use some old
shipping crates, or skids. Who knows??!!

If you are intrigued enough to purchase,
we will provide you with a complete history
for your instrument. The history might be
akin to this:

Wood: leftover 2x4 from a construction site.
Strings: used about 3 years ago on an old guitar.
Pickups: some buncha crap we snagged from some guy.
Electronics: whatever we can scrounge up!

Our warranty: There is no warranty, expressed or
implied. We fully acknowledge our product is crap, and
your purchase signifies that you have entered into an
agreement to buy a product that is lacking in quality,
contains poor materials, and is worthy of much abuse
and destruction. We will in no way provide any
customer service, so don't even waste your time!!![/quote]

I got quote for a Krappy the other day. I wanted a 3 string Les Paul punk bass and they said $300 plus $75 shipping.

I decided it was a bit on the pricey side for something so krappy.

P.

p.s. Besides...I lost the money playing poker anyway. :)
