Free bass!
« on: October 03, 2010, 10:26:48 AM »
My neighbor comes over friday, says he's seen me playin guitar and want to know if I want one he found up in his atic, said he forgot all about it tell he was cleaning it out.  I don't know what brand it is, its a copy of a ESP/LTD F modle for sure but holy crap! This thing acts like a active bass, volume knobs, just hardly turn em and wow! Tone knob the same way! And no its not active, I looked. But this bass is twice as loud as any of my others, I think I scored!

Too many angles for my taste - I'd be out with the 300 grit sandpaper and all those peaks would be so much history...

If she plays, she plays... not many of us would look a gift-horse in the mouth...

The BIG bottom line is that if you are happy, that is the primary concern...

Those will pop up on Ebay every so often. I think they are a Chinese ripoff of the ESP F model. Great deal getting one for free! Enjoy it!!

JUST the thing to play when you have the urge to get into spandex!

No, actually, if it plays well, just enjoy it.  It's different - so what?

LOVE those bodies! I ordered a 7 string guitar like it in a lefty & paid for it in full from a guitar shop in Honolulu 10 years ago.
6 months later they hadn't made any leftys so I got my money back.
I think they STILL haven't made any leftys.  :rolleyes:
Really coool esp. for FREE! Congrats

Paint it red, and it will rock harder! It must be the free bass week, a friend was given a japan made squier p.
Music was better when ugly people were allowed to make it.

I like those. My only quibble: It needs black hardware.
