BAH!  Don't think that way.  You can get those Chinese mudbucker clones, and they work fine and pump out the power.  Ask doc bass - this is a cinch.  As long as the top is in one piece, this is happening.  Glue, sanding, shoot the color in the garage.  Wire it up with some Allparts stuff.  Rockin.

Now if the top is bashed, f it.
Model One and Schallers?  Ish.

if you are not doc then the "cinch" diy project becomes an expensive pro fix. i say not worth it.

Didn't get it after all but not because of the normal reasons. My girlfriend's car was acting up while we were in Florida and some of the way home, so I didn't have time to think about, much less go look at that bass. Besides, it wouldn't have looked good to be buying a bass while her car was having throttle problems!

Isn't that her problem :-)   It's your problem after you're married......

Actually you might have lucked out.  That bass needed some real work.  they come around pretty often.

Haha, well, normally, yes. But since I was in her car, it sort of became my problem too. I figure at the very least I saved myself the purchase price of the bass and at the moment I'm okay with that.

Um, I'll just toss this out here - being an old married fart and all, but have you taken into consideration that it's economically beneficial to stay single  ;D :P

Well, she does have more basses than I'll ever have :sad:

Real question is WHAT DOES (DID)  IT COST TO BE SINGLE AGAIN!!!!!

When I got married (just over 21 years ago now) an Italian I worked with quoted a line, in Italian, from Dante's Inferno in our wedding card from the company - he eventually let on what it meant... a loose translation was, "Give up all hope those who pass this point..."

In answer to you question, Jumbo, probably more than most of us could afford... (ps still happily married)

it's a fact single men die sooner. having too much fun i imagine.

Single men don't die earlier, married life just feels longer, so-called marriage chill factor! ! - )

Just joking, I'm a true and monogamous  romantic at heart and all other relevant parts!

There's a greek saying that is like "all women are the same if you switch off the light" so maybe Uwe isn't completely wrong about that monogamy thing.
