Happy Jack Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 That's a month-old ad. Even it was genuine, the bass will be long gone by now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It surely can't be as it appears, can it? However, if it is and, if the seller gets back to me and, if it's still for sale, and if the seller can give me the Gibson serial number on the headstock, and if he can send me some photos of the rear of the headstock and, if I can convince myself it hasn't been nicked, I might go and see it. Not much chance of that then. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ou7shined Posted October 30, 2010 Share Posted October 30, 2010 I was viewing this from my phone earlier and didn't click the link. I fear Happy Jack may be right. I might have been worth snapping it up even if it wasn't a Gibby and selling it on but as soon as you see the words "found in a loft" in a description it's time to put your street-smarts hat on.
