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.

Why a Sturgeon? He could have built a bass bass ;D

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

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."
