When you add up all of the charges, it is really quite the deal

And the 180K BIN is only the down payment!

Someone would have to be seriously delusional to buy this. Almost as delusional as the seller.

wishnevsky could make that bass for 200 bucks.

Somebody invested 1200 hours so we could all get a good laugh.

It has to be said....

Something's fishy with that auction.

Dave W · May 30, 2013, 09:07:16 AM

It needs some ugly-ass buckeye burl to complete the look.

They grow some good stuff up there in Eureka.

Why a Sturgeon? He could have built a bass bass

Strings for stripes, it's a natural. If I only had the time.

Guys this isn't half as bad as a Wishnevsky. Hilariously overpriced though (what, does it actually produce caviar or something?).

Chris P. · May 30, 2013, 11:10:37 AM

I bought it and now I will spend another 10.000 euros to let it sound as a Precision.

I like the little detail that the seller is in EUREKA...!

There are houses that are cheaper than that...

"This listing was ended by the seller because there was an error in the listing."

Some extra zeros maybe?
