i didnt see it on ebay i figured someone grabbed it -thats why he ended auction early.

The seller probably took it down out of courtesy to the RIC staff who are probably working without sleep to determine exactly how rare that bass is.

I wonder if he reads the forum -if so he would be turning purple about now.

I'd like to see that. Yellow and purple are complimentary colors.

I would hope that the real reason the auction was pulled was because the listing was a gross misrepresentaion of the facts surrounding the bass. Someone who doesn't know better could be ripped off, pure and simple. Caveat Emptor.

He may have gotten an "enlightening" email from Santa Ana.

My grandfather used to refer to that color as "shitmuckle".
