It's as if someone really wanted to play a game of "Hangman" but only had a Chinese P Bass copy and a sharp stone to use. The bass looked quite nice once. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whoever did the scratch plate needs to go to Specsavers though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve seen that on YouTube, I think, but not totally sure that it’s meant to be a copy of a modified P bass that Adam Clayton played, not my sort of thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It looks like perfectly normal wear to me. ...or maybe someone passed a sander over the top bout once, got bored and then dropped the bass on a concrete floor a few times.
