Body shape is wrong, parts don't match up - at best a copy body with a Fender neck at worst a total fake bitsa. I wouldn't bother.

I do a version with a band that improvises around classic songs. We do a fairly funky version and I use some of the cello phrases, the descending scale sounds good if you play around with it and use the dynamics. Always goes down well and there's a lot of room to play around in.

Following my message to him I got this email from the sender this morning 'whoops! ok cheers for the info, have ended it and will be be relisting it without a name or age!'

I've pointed out the error of his ways....wonder if he'll change the listing?

Ha ha! It's possibly a Watkins or Wilson Rapier Bass like on here - http://www.watkinsguitars.co.uk/basses.htm I think I'll drop him a line.....

[quote name='Mr. Foxen' timestamp='1369784785' post='2092821'] Copyright comes automatically. There has been some fuss recently about legislation to make it actually legal to use images that are floating around the web where the creator doesn't care about them being used. I've bought an amp on ebay that was using a picture of one of my amps, surprisingly, when the amp arrived, it was not as pictured (since the pictured one was sat in my living room the whole time) so I tapped up the scrote for £50 back for using my image/item not being as per image. [/quote] Good call about the amp. I always believed copyright/ownership had to be stated or declared - otherwise once submitted to the public domain it was lost. I know that Facebook have had a legal battle about using submitted images - my brother is a photographer and always uses a 'signature' across the image to prevent reproduction of the image without permission/payment.
