It just "needs restoration to be perfect".

but over all I see NO damage to Bass neck or body ...I  think someone will make a Pristine instrument out of this beauty

Haha!

NO damage... Pristine... Beauty

"I Know NOTHING about guitars at all ..."

I certainly agree.

[Stjofön Big]

What was someone thinking of??? Holy cow, almost brings a tear to the eye!

[PhilT]

What was it, before someone took a chainsaw to it?

[Freuds_Cat]

surely that is an "on the way too dry side" attempt at ironic humor?

Just get yourself a trashed entry level 80s Pacific Rim import bass, add a Gibson neck plate and a possibly working Gibson pickup, and voilà! Instant Gibson!

"I Know NOTHING about guitars at all I saw a sale at bought it..."

"...but over all I see NO damage to Bass neck or body..."

If he sees no damage, he is telling the truth in one respect: he is indeed among the most ignorant people on the planet about stringed instruments. 

[uwe]

He's a liar and a cheat. This with all due respect of course.

Nice tuners...and a more original design than most of the recent Gibson offerings.

All it needs is a revolutionary internal circuit that models other basses, and a Steve Jobs type press conference to introduce it to the world.
