Well, fried, sauteed, boiled and grilled. I'm done! Damn, I wanted that! Congrats Chef; I take my hat and apron off to you! Hope you build something great...

Now I've got 4 hours before I have to get up for work...aarrgghh.

Jeez John, I paid less for basses that I could actually play! Nice score BTW.

What a beautiful body! And it's not even a girl!!!

John, who do you have in mind for this project? This will be an envious bass when it is restored.

wow $900! Did not think it was going to go that high. Are you going to fix it? You would have to glue a whole new neck on wouldn't you?

I vote as follows...

Keep the AG wings (beautiful) but make a neck/centerblock and leave the badboy natural...maybe even do the headsock wings to match the body.

Just an idea... Image
What do you mean the Bass is too loud???
