Off Topic Trying to pawn off a bass as a 1 of a kind Stingray

[RaginRog]

Check this eBay listing out....sorry if it's a forumite, but he makes it seem like the bass is a one of a kind Stingray made specifically for him in dedication of the New orlean Saints.

Would you guys say this is misleading???

I don't care if he is a forum member...what a loser! It is a nice looking bass though, even though it would look better in purple & gold

 

[maddog]

I've never seen such an abuse of capitalization.

That and I'm sure the NFL would love to have a go at him using the Saints logo.

Or Green and White...(Jets fan).

Oh...Maybe Blue & Orange....Mets Fan


Don't give me crap.....I actually like your Twins. Had a good friend of mine years ago who was a Twins fan.

I feel like reporting him to Ebay....Some poor fool may actually believe they are getting something special...which it is a nice bass....BUT it's not the only true gold bass EB has ever made. I shot him a message and told him his listing was misleading...maybe he'll get the hint.

Yeah, the Wild and the Twins are all i have to look forward to since the Vikings choked again, & the Timberwolves stink it up every time they take the court... man they suck!

Thanks man... right back 'atcha! At least you have good taste in musical instruments

So he puts a Saints logo with the bass, which coincidentally is sort of a "Saints gold" and he'll sell it under the assumption that it is a limited run bass? Am I close? If I am, definitely misleading...

I kind of understood it to be the Colors of The New Orleans Saints, I didn't think he was trying to mislead anyone, Just my opinion.

 

[MrMusashi]

i would rate it borderline.. for us geeks who know a little about eb basses its not a problem seeing that its just a standard bass that he himself gave a special name when he ordered it, but for a regular joe looking for something collectible... different story..

"From the Order form it was Called “The Saints Bass” - Quote directly from EBAY ad.

I don't remember any such bass on any EBMM order form?

 

[oli@bass]

Looks like a nice 'Ray. I'd not hesitate to use that one on stage...

 

[Sheppardslegion]

I guess you have to pay extra for the colored tape on the case that says so.... too funny.

Cheers,

Over The Top advertising? Shocking!!!

I love this part:
This Bass is a one off, never done in this combination, now the True Gold Color is Gone and it can never be duplicated again. You really can’t put a Value on it. I am listing this Bass just one time. If it does not meet the reserve and go high, then I am going to Archive it and leave it to my Son, in my Will. I am the only one who has played it. Only for a minute to Play:

“ When the Saints Come Marching In”

I wonder if he is a car salesman?

 

[bovinehost]

Can't blame the guy for trying, eh.

me either, but if it had purple on it I'd shy away from holding it... being from Vikings territory, I'd probably pull an Adrian Peterson and fumble it

That's what you call "SUPER CHEESE."

How 'bout those "black dual humbucker pickups to round out the package" ... as opposed to the standard periwinkle ones, I guess.
