    HOW MUCH IS FLEA'S SIGNATURE WORTH!!!?

    A $800-$850 bass with his signature starting at $5599!!!

    I don't think so.
    Starting to think about returning to bass playing in the very near future.

    Psycho Ward,

    I believe the entire telecommunications infrastructure everywhere around the globe saw a severe reduction in value after that photo was posted....

    Firstly, it's a Stingray, not a Sterling. That would be enough to make me question the validity of the bass.

    I just want to see how far this auction goes before someone calls CG on that f/u!

    That would be a nice addition to any of the Hard Rock cafes around the world. Prollee wouldn't blink at the price either.

    That bass was on display up here in Spokane Wa when they opened their crapbox store. I think they wanted 5k for it when it was here.

    If that were the real thing, and if I were, like, a millionaire, I'd buy it.

    I'm not buying it.

    I hear ya JB1, and geez, that's a price tag to boot!

    Though, that black on black makes me glad I got a Ray on the way in the same colour scheme, so I'm happy.
