It was mentioned here http://bassoutpost.com/index.php?topic=10538.0

I had never heard of the brand before but he has a website and seems to have a following
http://www.krappyguitars.com/punkbass.html

Somebody posted a pic of one of his Hofner-looking 2-strings here a couple of years back without any identification.

I met the owner/operator of Krappy a couple years back at a small festival in Raleigh where I was running sound.
Very nice guy.

BTW, I made that bass sound like it had 3-strings!

Looking at his pricing on the website, his stuff looks very good considering how little he charges. Not for everyone, of course, but he must have found his niche.
