Magnation Posted April 5, 2014 Share Posted April 5, 2014 I believe I've found another http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/bass-guitar-body-PUNK-ROCK-RELIC-80s-sunburst-/161229392839?pt=UK_Musical_Instruments_Guitars_CV&hash=item258a054bc7 Clearly this bloke is the same league of deranged as the seller linked by the OP if he expects £65 for a PLYWOOD body that he's dragged across his garage floor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

[/quote] You are not far wrong ... As a french polisher , back in the 80/90s i used to specialise in high quality " replica " period pieces from the 17th century... I used all manner of " special tools" to age the Pieces ranging from a 3' chain , a brick , red hot nuts and bolts to my favourite , a folded up band saw blade .... Then there were the chemicals ....

lemmywinks Posted April 29, 2014 Author Share Posted April 29, 2014 Oh dear! When I see these I actually feel compelled to buy them and sand them back, kinda like when you're buying a pet and you take pity on the sickly runt so you can take it home to nurse it back to health. Then I look at the prices and think "f**k that". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
