Found this bass for 20 bucks... Whats its deal?

She needs a full restoration, and a hard to find bridge, and yes the headstock decal is gone.

I don't know what your plans are with it, but I'll make a realistic offer if you don't have the ability to restore it.

X2... Second in line after Casa if you decide you must part with it. JOSH

yeah!, and how come theyre always named lucky?? Never EVER name your dog , or your bass, Lucky. THIS is what happens!

Made me laugh....

That is my dream, to find a nice and abused bass for $20 bucks.

Hope you can make it work, even if you can't restore it to original. If the pickup and preamp are ok it will sound very good.

looks like e.coli sold his bass with his mods still intact. we tried to tell him.

Wow ... we offended e.coli so much that he went and sold his bass for $20.00?
Guess it is a good thing it didn't take anytime to install that Baddass bridge.

Feeding Frenzy?

nah not really - I thought that my "winky face" at the end absolved me of said accusation. That bass is OBVIOUSLY worth a LOT more.

really,who replaces the Stingray bridge with a Badass? Thats such a step backwards.
The only thing I can imagine is that someone was having fun taking apart their bass and lost the saddles, so they picked up a Badass and replaced it.
I see basses like this all the time "upgraded" with a bartolini or EMG.
Basically that says to me the owner either had no talent or didnt know how to eq his amp right. Both those kinds of people like to monkey around with their bass (instead of on their bass!).

Jealous much!
