This will go for a small amount and be a great deal for someone here. I won't be bidding.

Well this one is priced right for certain but you will need a strong repair to hold that neck together.

Okay guys, I'm in on this one- current high bidder. Please let me know if there is any conflict.

GO, GO, GO for it Joe. We're pulling for you. The photos are shoddy and tiny, but we all know what the potential is. These things weigh a ton, Arthurs was just shy of 11lbs!

I have a goodwill account, but I haven't actually won anything from them yet. I have found some of their shipping costs pretty unrealistic, although the X620's looks good. Good Luck, Mike.

I was thinking about it, but decided against it... seems my current project list is big enough already... and is interfering with my honey-do list :)

Well, my project list is extensive at the moment....just started on the 2279 with the bullet hole in the body,an Ibanez lawsuit lp, 2 acoustics,blah,blah....... BUT, it's an MPC bass!(explanation to wife)
I think the headstock is repairable....probably have to use splints for strength,can't tell condition of rest- could always make a Chris Squire replica.......
Joe :oops:

Go get em Ozark good Luck and hope to see it when it's done. These are solid wood and a heavy to say the least but they sustain for days. :up:

I have no real projects at the moment - If you're too busy Joe, I'll take a run at it.

Far be it from me to deprive a fellow Electraphile a project, I'll step off.... all yours Jead, I know you'll do it justice.

NO - I dropped the ball. Got caught up rounding up parts and working on a '66 blackface Deluxe Reverb and completely lost track. Sorry Joe.

No problem,went for less than it should have-great deal for whoever got it. Now send me the '66 blackface deluxe and all will be forgiven :D
