So clearly a fake it's not even funny. Grabber neck on a home-made body.

I'll bet the seller knows it too, even though he's a pawnbroker. Saying "It is marked G-3 on the headstock" gives him an out if an unsuspecting buyer finds out it's a fake. He's just reporting what the marking states.

It does have an old Charvel/Jackson bridge.  Could the body be one of the Charvel ones they used to sell back in the 70's?  I had a Dimarzio Explorer bass body before.

Can't believe nobody has said it yet: It's ugly.
The body is missing the "shoulders" at the neck joint.

It would be worth the 99 cent opening bid if it weren't for the $29.99 shipping.

Mmm... MB1 pups... ;D

If research was easy, it wouldn't need doing...
Staring at that event horizon is a dirty job, but someone has to do it; something's going to come back out of it one day...

Such beauty, especially with blond long hair and matching over-knee boots:



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 ...

The unknown Gibson V, wonder where it went?
