It really looks like Ken is going for this one. Shipping will be rather high!

Well, i wish him good luck! I've tried bass a while ago - with little success... my left hand is still too weak to cope with it...
So good luck to whoever wins this one!

You only have to recess the Badass 1 AFAIK, the '2' just sits on the guitar body. I put one on a Fender P and it worked very well.

Black pickguard on a FireGlo finish. Wasn't there a thread around here somewhere a week or two ago asking about black trimmed Fireglos? I think it looks pretty good, but I like white better.

The six-string side must also be routed for the bridge pickup:

The installation of the non-original 6-string bridge also required two holes to be drilled into the body; I don't know whether a replacement RIC bridge plate will cover those.

IMO, even at the current bid, it's a lot of money for an extensively modded guitar.
