alyctes Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 I doubt it will wear well. But until then... (I think it's hideous, actually.) https://reverb.com/uk/item/64452353-epiphone-jack-casady-mid-00s-black-custom-gold-fretless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yorks5stringer Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Agree, gold is quite a soft metal. Should be good for 007 theme tunes mind... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheGreek Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 It does have the hard to come by hard case though. Probably the most desirable part of this sale. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tauzero Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 I wouldn't want to slide my fingers along that, it looks like shellgrip. I'm sure it's actually nice and smooth, but in my mind my fingertips would be gouged to the bone. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

3below Posted January 1, 2023 Share Posted January 1, 2023 Well that is different. With that, the opening song on any set must be Goldfinger He's the man, the man with the Midas touch A spider's touch Such a cold finger Beckons you to play his bass of sin But don't go in with apologies for the changed line 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jean-Luc Pickguard Posted January 23, 2023 Share Posted January 23, 2023 I bet this looked a lot better in his imagination before he ripped the frets out and applied that hideous finish. Must be a regret sale as he feels a bit sick and ashamed every time he looks at it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
prowla Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 "I currently have flatwounds on this which gives a sound very close to a double bass when the impedance is set low." - now ain't that a thing... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lemmywinks Posted January 25, 2023 Share Posted January 25, 2023 If you were going to do this to a Jack Casady then surely you'd pick the gold one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only if you had one. Or maybe he's got a bee in his bonnet about his version being better than theirs? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
