WOW IT LOOKS AMAZING
Seriously why do people do this ?

Yeah I like relics, but damn.

Yeah i like relics too when they are done right

As you can see, I tried to "retro" it. I sanded some parts of it to make it look old. I also put some stickers on it. I think the bass looks really cool, but some may disagree.

hahaha "TRIED" being the key word here!!!

well I disagree with that job, and thanks to that he will get 1/2 of what the thing "could" be worth....
a few slight wear spots, some chips and dings only tend to make the unit look old naturally, unless you are a " my basses are 40 years old and are still in mint condition" fanatic.

I won't tie up a thread on how much I used my 2 main basses for almost 20 years, and NEVER thought about "man would this look cool all worn out looking"...just not me, but like PRB said, some people like that.

They stickers ought to say "BUSH LEAGUE"

I think those crappy cell phone pics are actually covering up how bad his relic job really is.

Ya know i was thinking the same thing

If you guys saw what I did to my first bass, you'd kick me off this forum. Let's just say that I could have used Rod's helpful tips 25 years ago.

pjmuck i bet every one here has either thought about or done it once i remember bought this cheap strat copy and thought let me make my own srv relic guitar didnt turn to well
