The Heads Up Thread

A horrible looking bass with a horrible price from possibly the worst instrument seller on eBay:



I think their tagline is "Come visit our shop, where the used instruments cost 25% more than the new MSRP, hope you enjoy terrible pictures and barely any description"

EDIT: Here are some other wonderful listings:

Haha I try.

It's gone now, but at one point they wanted 3000 euro for a 1967 Rickenbacker 4005 with no electronics or hardware, a fretless ebony fingerboard glued on top of the existing fretted fingerboard, refinished in a colour they called "turd brown".

One picture was shown.

Anyway, carry on....

[thefitz]

Uh, here's a Streamer LX that had its headstock stop off... and was therefore converted to a headless bass.

Ah yes - the wenge neck threw me off. I didn't know Warwick put wenge on the Streamer Standard. Given the ridiculousness of the mod, I thought the jack and bridge were aftermarket haha

1987 Streamer, I think the opening bid isn't that extortionate
