BigRedX Posted April 29, 2008 Share Posted April 29, 2008 Can't see any RKS in your gallery - are the photos not up yet?

greyparrot Posted April 30, 2008 Author Share Posted April 30, 2008 (edited) I DO love it but not as much as the status. The cat is called the hog and is available for £1400 plus next day parcel force 24. HE is active, but is also good when played with passively. He has light gauge whiskers, but these can be replaced. He has a lovely grain and is very silk like to touch. He has an awsome growl, and also a cool purr when being played with. if i sell it (the bass) cool if i dont thats also cool!

I agree with the rest of the guys if you dont have anything positve to say then juge in silence hen someone is selling an item. Personally i think its beutiful, and is a mile away from the standard, and if youra little quirky and lovedifferent things, then you will love this! d be interested to see what you think when i get my headless stautus s2 five string with exotic wood body and curly maple fingerboard over graphite! thats beingfinsihed at status for me nex week. As i said out of the two i have for sale i would sooner keep this than the warwick. Out of interest does nobody want a warwick anymore???

BigRedX Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 Nice photos! Not entirely sure about the colour, this may of of those instruments you have to see in the flesh... The change of title meant I spent several minutes wondering where this thread had gone. Can't afford it right now, if it's still for sale in a month's time I may make you an offer.

Wooks Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I really like this and the fact that you can change the body is a really cool idea!! A body to suit your mood I would love this but at the moment it's a bit out of my price range I think But good luck with the sale!!

Wooks Posted April 30, 2008 Share Posted April 30, 2008 I would love this but I'm still waiting to hear back from Peavey about the fiasco that's been on going so I'm not really in a position to make a move Just out of interest do you know how much a new body would be roughly?
