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. |

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

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.
