A "retail value of $ 669" is stretching things, but what really put me off was this here:

"This is my husband's back up bass. It was only used for practices, and he used it solely as a emergency guitar.

Plays and sounds great, he just does not need three bass guitars. Hate to sell, but we really need to."

Commit this woman to the cleansing power of the holy fire!!! Where are the Pilgrims when you need them?

She's obviously clinically insane. Three basses??? I can't imagine!

1) i noticed that and decided i like the pickguard

2) NSFW ....... can we say pussy whipped?

3) i don't like the pickup

~~editing this because i am getting a picture of why i am a better b/f than a husband~~

thinking aboiut it again i fail to understand why i thought that in the first place

Yeah, I wonder if that guy even knows his wife is eBaying his bass.

I must put a locker in the closet I keep my basses some day soon.

I like the PG. Hoping to get off dead center soon on my project to turn my EB-0 into a short scale EB-3.

ONLY three basses - that wouldn't start to cover what most of the guys here have?

I dislike the way she thinks. Totally flawed logic.

You ever do any divorce law Uwe?

3 Basses doesn't even qualify as noticable....................

None the less I'm happy to be single and not have to explain myself to anyone. Last week when the Expibird anf the BaCH showed up on the same day within minutes of each other my GF could only smile

I have conflicting information here:

"I'm happy to be single ..."

and

"my GF could only smile ...".

How many Marks are there?

gweimer · March 16, 2010, 02:22:20 PM

I wonder how many pairs of shoes she has?

Mark, the girlfriend, or between the two of them?

A friend that is a girl...? perfectly possible... not even that shocking, really...

I'm married... I have three basses...

I get by...

Single as in not married or co-habitating, dating ok, yes.

I'll have to check the closet later but I think I have more basses than women's shoes

A new Epi EB-0 is $199 at MF. This one is used, let's say it's worth $150 unmodded.

Subtract 100 for ugly pickguard
Subtract 100 for EMG downgrade
Subtract 100 for saying he doesn't need three basses.

She'd have to pay me $150 to take it. Maybe more, depending on my mood.
