waynepunkdude Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 for that price I'd want to f*** it up myself Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bythesea Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I thought maybe they were covering their ebay fees, but they have it at the same price in their online (outside ebay) store. £863 at GAK, though they do charge an extra £30 for the sunburst.

steve-soar Posted August 3, 2009 Author Share Posted August 3, 2009 Absolute sh*t for those who want a "gig ready experience" bass. I love Fender basses but this is a bridge too far, as are all reliced basses. I wonder if they are dividing the premium with the Mexican staff?

ednaplate Posted August 3, 2009 Share Posted August 3, 2009 I was at a guitar shop in Bolton recently with my wife and they had a couple of Road Worn guitars on the wall for £800+. She sneered at them at said "800 quid and it looks like sh*te! Why on earth would anyone want to buy that?" I didn't have an answer. But then again she plays the flute.
