TheGreek Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 You'll need a big amp to be louder than this...turn down that paint job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bassassin Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I think someone's '90s Harley chop wants its paintjob back. Happily, a spot of acetone should get that mess off the bass in a jiffy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lemmywinks Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 (edited) I like it! Mind you I had one of the gold leaf Curbows and liked that too: Edited June 19, 2018 by lemmywinks 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think there's enough paint over the luthite that the luthite is safe from harm, though when I see one for sale with chips through to the luthite I steer well clear - that stuff stinks even with paint over it... Would love a 5-string Curbow... but will pass on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted June 19, 2018 Share Posted June 19, 2018 If anyone asks about the finish when you're playing it you could tell them its an x-ray bass and is currently displaying your stomach contents 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I bought an Ibanez EDA905 once. That long lower horn... it went back. I don't know if the seller got his money back from the courier.
