For those unfamiliar with the "artwork" shown above, it was done by a lady in her '80s who took it upon herself to repair a fresco in her church in Spain, without the church's permission. The church was considering suing her when the news surfaced.

It was subsequently discovered and posted on numerous websites and became a meme. The church has since experienced a massive upturn in visitors wanting to see the masterpiece, so they began to charge admission. Now the lady is suing the church for a cut of the action.

The latest spin on this phenomenon is the "Bodged Jesus Fresco Halloween Costume", seen here:

Addendum: I contacted her for help on the FOOW bass, but she's booked until death.

Wow, very interesting thread from a while back. I guess that bass (or the three made) could be called 4001CSse. CS (special edition). Or 4001FOW.. (Fish out of Water edition). He's gone too soon. RIP
