Gah!!! Talk about neck dive....

The good news is, you're really only a body and pickguard away from a cool bass.  :-\

That's not a Grabber, that's an ex-Grabber.

It's deceased.  It's a non-bass.  It has shuffled off this mortal coil.  It's a post-Grabber.

Nudge nudge, wink wink.

If Les Paul were alive, he would suggest taking it to the old Epiphone factory & putting sides from an old guitar on it! At least it looks like it might be Ferrari Red.......... :o

To quote those poets from Iron Maiden: The evil that men do.

I've always held that your First Amendment goes too far.

They should have cut the son not the body. Beheading the perpetrator seems a fitting deterrent here.
