I'm not bidding because you will ban me from here after I yank the mudbucker and put a good pickup under the hood ;)

If it sounds as good as the 1961 one that is in the Norman's Rare Guitars video that I posted the other day it is a steal!

  Wow it went for $976! Great deal. I've got enough EB shaped basses but someone got a helluva deal.

You and your strange rites.
We've taken too much for granted ... and all the time it had grown ...
From techno seeds we first planted ... evolved a mind of its own ...
