WHAT A BARGAIN. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TPTroll Posted September 30, 2015 Author Share Posted September 30, 2015 They should really check the liver function of that bass, it's got some clear warning signs... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ras52 Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Having taken a peek at it from the OP's link, I was hoping I'd never cast eyes on it again. But Facebook knows that I looked, and is tormenting me with a "suggested post" exhorting me to "[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Buy it now on eBay before it's too late![/font][/color]" Arrrgghhh!

kodiakblair Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 Asked the seller what work they did to make the deko jazz bass playable. " It's not a deko !! that's a mark left by a clamp during manufacture." Then they suggested I go do something else Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4-string-thing Posted September 30, 2015 Share Posted September 30, 2015 They copied my idea and reshaped the headstock.... Maybe I should copy theirs and spray mine yellow? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You have to admire his chutzpah mind, asking £150 for it. Funny how the category "New Other " states it should not have any sign of wear....

Annoying Twit Posted October 3, 2015 Share Posted October 3, 2015 It sold...... The problem is of course you've got to remember that when PT Barnum said 'There's one born every minute' the world's population was much lower. If we assume that the proportion of fools in the population has stayed steady, that would mean that there's one born about every seventeen seconds nowadays.

cameltoe Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 His DIY tele headstocks crack me up. How much is a decent jigsaw these days? He looks like he's using a hacksaw on them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
