Ontopic String's and Adi's gear & pedal thread

When I first read the first paragraph I thought you had this bass and it had been stolen.
Damaged. Shipped. Repaired again by Michael the builder.
I'm only out $160 cause after the shitty experience I shipped it out to Cali in a hardshell case.
Was a long war with Reverb to get them to pay for the repair (Michael purchased the shipping label from Reverb so the damage was on them).
May be the greatest fretless neck I've ever owned.

Michael promised me the $160 but obviously changed his mind.
Even though his company is named for a Bible verse (316) I guess God helps those who help themselves (to my $160).

I get leery of doing business with people who advertise their religion or wear it on their sleeve like that. Feels like they're trying to work an angle.

I just basically inherited a recording studio from a dead relative. 6 guitars, PA, mixing board, 36 track recording deck, bass cab, marshall twin, etc, etc, etc
 
A '78 p-bass that someone changed the saddle on worth $1100 and an '88 Squier Strat that's worth $1100. Had no idea squire's could get that high. The ball buster? They're both fuckin' lefty! Womp womp.
way cool :)
ya japanese squiers get good prices nowadays,
there are very few stores that specialise in lefty guitars, i think chicago music exchange has a big lefty section, you could trade these for righties and maybe even get some money in return because lefty stuff is rare

It's actually an early Korean Squier in Olympic White.
