So i ordered a DDII Big Al the day the order window opened up from Bass Central In Florida who I have been dealing with for many many years. I payed off the bass with some of my savings, and was patiently waiting for my bass to be delivered, when i was diagnosed with brain cancer. And now the medical bills are stacking up. And i don't know what to do. I have both my Bongo and My 2008 LE for sale in the for sale forums. I just need to make some money before i completely go under. I know i am not the most active member on this board, but have been lurking since 2002, i'm hoping my fellow knuckleheads can help me out and buy some of my equipment. so i can pay my medical bills. If anyone is interisted in my DD2 Big Al that was ordered on July 13th from Bass Central. Let me know so i can contact them and let them know someone is taking over my preorder. I got a hell of a deal on her. I really don't want to get rid of my stuff but as a 25 year old the fact that i may be dying makes me reevaluate my priorities.... Mods, please feel free to delete if this is too off topic.

Thanks,

E P

Thanks for the well wishes guys. Spread the word the order window ends tomorrow. I'm not looking to make any money, just get what i have put into it already. In the meantime, chemo and the couch are my best friends.

My prayers and best are with you. I wish you a speedy recovery, and many more years of Bass playing health in front of you. I will keep my ears and eyes out for anyone who may be interested as well.

OK here is the challenge...if we pull this off E.P. has to promise to not sell the basses...ever

I need someone to volunteer to hast a paypal for this deal. He wants $2,500.00 for his basses for sale. If the knuckleheads give enough to match the amount then I will give him the Dargie free and he keeps his other music man basses....deal?
Ill start by putting the first $100.00 Dont feel pressured if you can afford a dollar give a dollar.

This is where we show what we are made of. We are knuckleheads.

Oh that's horrible, horrible news. I'm so sorry to hear it.

Count me in for helping to raise funds.

Edit: I've fired off some funds to leftyguitarblue's PP account.

If someone is willing to take this on, just leave us your email address (that's hooked up to paypal) and we will send the donations.

EDIT: Just noticed Lefty's noble undertaking on the other side. Donation sent.
