Remeber the nude (stripped) Tuxedo sold on Ebay a while back? Well, it turned into a "Redneck Tuxedo".

What's great about this bass is that I can use it. Earlier this year I sold my Blackstar which I had bought new (to someone on this forum.) I LOVED how it felt in my hands and how it sounded. But it had become too valuable as a collector's item to use so I let it go.
With this one, no such worries. It has the same underpinnings as the Blackstar and plays and sounds just like it. But because collectors won't touch it now, I can use it without worry.
Yes, that's all a little crazy, isn't it? And anyway, I always wanted a Redneck, but never figured i could afford one....

Excellent job. A happy ending!
But please, don't let the value keep the instrument from being enjoyed. Here I am playing my '68 last night. Play it like ya stole it.
