Buzz Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Just a shame it's not a Grabber. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cat Burrito Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 I prefer the natural look ones, couple of great deals on second hand ones recently on EBay. I love the look but didn't like the unfinished feel of the necks when I tried one. I'm sure they'll suit many people though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ancient Mariner Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Nice idea, but I wonder what they weigh with a (largish) maple body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tait Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 i played a natural one of these at a london guitar show or music live or something a couple of years ago and seriously thought about buying it. i didn't know they did it in black, this has me gassing slightly.

lozbass Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 Great deal! I have an old Ripper from the early 70s (heavily modded) and it's a superb bass. Rippers seem to divide opinion - some love 'em (like me), others loathe 'em. The Epi is very different from an original but still looks suberb and I'd suspect, is a decent player. You'll need to consider a case - Rippers definitely won't fit in a standard case (body width). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Paul S Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 (edited) I love them too - damn, that's one handsome guitar. My Washburn Sacvenger (eyes left) is very similar in shape and also has a fat arse - fits into a Hiscox STD-EBP case.

arsenic Posted April 10, 2010 Share Posted April 10, 2010 I remember drooling over the Gibson Ripper that was on display in a local guitar shop when I was younger, I could justify it at the time, but never afford it - now I can afford it, I can't justify it - typical. But if these are as good as I have heard - it may be a solution to decades of unfulfilled GAS - after all, what's in a name Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jag_Bassist Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Does anyone know if you could directly change the bridge for a Badass? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moos3h Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 Coda have them at the same price and I very nearly bought one last week. Glad I tried it first, because as I'm a fatty it was VERY uncomfortable to play! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bh2 Posted July 9, 2011 Share Posted July 9, 2011 (edited) IMO they look bloody horrible... I had a Grabber once... it was sh-ite. Edited July 9, 2011 by bh2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
