What's with these SPEED-1 Knockoffs?

[rogerbmiller]

This seems shady to me. Or is this a new licensed version of the Sterling SUB?

Looks like the Jay Turser etc-etc knockoffs,
which have been around so long that they
predate the whole SBMM line. However all
the previous "MM-type" garbage avoided
plaguerizing the MM headstock dress. This
one is in violation.

"You gotta get one,.lol."

Nice description dudes. Lol

At first I was thinking, "Hm... Nice dive-bar bass, lol. If it gets hammered or stolen, no worries, lol." He should call it the Violation Bass, lol. Except on the same guy's page I saw a PB copy in black for something like $70, and you even get a free cord *and* a free pick, lol. Or at least that's how I remember it; I don't want to go back there and look, lol. This s__t's too funny, lol. So, "lol" is back from the dead, I guess, lol. I wonder if AOL email accounts and Myspace will come back also, lol.
