Laugh or cry?

[strummer]

Guys, I just have to share this:
Musicman Stingray -76
As you see it's a real oldie, with some "improvements)
If I had just a little more money I'd save the poor thing...

i'm gonna go with cry on this one..........



like wtf?

 

[russjm]

Er, yeah, you have to wonder what some people are thinking when they do stuff like that don't you?

 

[timmy5strings]

I saw one on Ebay the someone added a J pickup to. Improvements my butt

 

[WillPlay4Food]

Wow, the guy wants $786 for that (if I translated krona correctly)?

Yep you got that down pat, will. See he lowered the price, the initial asking price was double that

 

[maddog]

I dunno. refinish it, clean up the hardware and stick some original electronics in it I think it'd be kind of cool.

Dunno about Krona, I think the guy selling that has been drinking too much Corona.

I'd go with cry.

• Take one vintage MM bass
• Add one loon with a router
• Result - yuk!

Cry until you laugh / laugh until you cry

Tom, if I get some kind of christmas bonus I'll make the guy an offer, and then it'll be full recovery mission 2008!

with a such tiny pickup, it must have a "thin" sound indeed!

 

[strummer]

yeah, and the foam under that li'l pick up must make for a spongy bottom.D

 

[tkarter]

I didn't laugh or cry I just clicked the X and it went away real fast.

[Slapfest]

No wonder its for sale.

Of all the basses to 'Frankenstein'!

 

[Dr. Nick]

I've had too much Corona and my SR4 didn't suffer.

Of course, a couple Coronas is enough. There's a reason they export that stuff...

 

[mrpackerguy]

I'll kick it up a notch to Sob...BAM! Oh the humanity!

 

[ekb16b]

[pudgychef]
