How does it play/sound?

I dunno. It needs a setup badly and it's wired wrong.

I'm gonna take it in tomorrow...

fuck that looks super sweet.

Who cares if it even plays, you would look awesome rawking that. Put on some backing ttracks and just rawk.


or you could get it setup and GIVE US CLIPS

Oh yeah, that is some nice-ass looking shit right there.

Fuckin' sick!

Is this with a clearcoat on the fabric?

Yus, coat teh fabricks. I brought it to the guy and he called me later like "yeahh... just to let you know, you're gonna be out ~200$."

Why so many dollars? Is there also some sexlove exchanging hands?

What pickups are in that beautiful creature, Geoff?



I'd think that would lower the price?

Depends on what direction the exchange primarily takes, i believe.

I'll put out for gear.

Of course, in the past, this has meant "sell my gear to appease significant other because I am not gigging because they view band as a threat" which is sorta the opposite.

Because he's rewiring it and replacing a shit jack I used, and then also doing a set up.

That is cool man. You will just have to get your sexlove out of the bass later.

That still seems mighty 'spensive, but then again the Canuckian sexchange rate and all, probably only about 122.36 rubles by my calculations

I'm going to have to join the that is a bit much side.

Jacks are cheap as fuck, so is wire. Wiring instrument electronics is not tough at all. I have done it, and you can ask chris about the quality of my workmanship (it's awful). A setup is a bit more involved, but if you have the tools it does not take very long. Unless there is something drastically fucked up with that bass, it shouldn't be $200 in labor.

As a reference, the guitar shop I worked in used to give complete setups with new strings and such for under $50. Even if repairs or extra work, like wiring new pickups, were involved it still wasn't too much of a premium. Granted, that shop did close down, but that was mostly due to the owner being a flakey stoner.

Basically

$180.80

But does it now kick ass?

We'll see this Monday when I pick it up. I suppose I'll use it to finish off the Walk the Dinosaur cover...
