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

I certainly agree.

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!

One of Scott "I came, I sawed ..." of Thunder's early (and discarded) projects perhaps?

Personally, I think it showed real promse.

"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.

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.
