The other partially shown bass (a Warwick, maybe) was probably happy that it wasn't included in the picture. How embarassing.

It sure fits the rest of the horrid package! groovelines Advanced Member Username: groovelines Post Number: 396 Registered: 4-2003 Posted on Tuesday, October 24, 2006 - 1:03 pm:    Salvador Dali inspired? Uh, here goes...other than the extra bits of metal, I sorta like it. The wood is beautiful, it's an imaginative execution of a functional tool. My guess is that the wood probably existed close to this in it's natural state - think a cross section of a large knobby cypress root. Would I buy it, nope. But I can appreciate it. 57basstra Senior Member Username: 57basstra Post Number: 466 Registered: 4-2005 Posted on Tuesday, October 24, 2006 - 2:51 pm:    Wonder if that diamond plate came off of a MusicMan SUB? chuck Junior Username: chuck Post Number: 21 Registered: 3-2005 Posted on Tuesday, October 24, 2006 - 5:44 pm:    looks like the running boards on my old bronco hunting truck.-------chuck hankster Member Username: hankster Post Number: 73 Registered: 6-2004 Posted on Tuesday, October 24, 2006 - 6:14 pm:    "I'm melting!

That it's butt ugly is beyond question.
