Cool! That’s “only” Hornbach. It looks like it comes from a fancy hipster store. And very cheap too!

We have one wall that needs to be improved. We decided on hieroglyphs, done by ourselves (with actual meaning, like stupid jokes: “Kommt ein Cowboy vom Frisör, Pony weg!”), but your wallpaper would look even better there…

130€ for this Squier, with the flight case. Yes or no?

Do you need it?? (Yeah, I had to ask… :grin:)

If the flightcase is good, the bass is basically for free.

But, actually rather seriously, do you need it? If truly yes, then go for it.

Well, need it is a big word, I just thought it looked like a really good deal, with the case. Then maybe use the bass as a modding bass.

@nebel - both are like Lego: no soldering! I really love the X series of EMG! Both are hum free!

Yes, slightly… just trying to avoid him having to unload a bunch of never-played basses later in his career :crazy_face:

Yes. Keep it next to the front door in case of intruders. :boxing_glove: :boxing_glove:

Not sure if they come with it, but if those strings are still in the box, those are probably worth 30-40 dollars right there.

Unfortunately, this bass for sale is a jazz bass, probably not great for a home defense weapon. The neck would probably break just by picking it up… :grinning:

I opted not to get it. There were just too many red flags. I asked to come and try it. They did not want that, as for that price you could not let everyone come and try it. Then I said I was not interested, since I’d never want to buy a used instrument without trying it.

Then I could try it, but they wanted to meet at a neutral location, since they did not want people to come home to them, and I should come alone. No way for me to hook it up to an amp then. So keep your shit. :man_shrugging:

Hmmmm … I don’t want everybody at my house to, I can relate!

That makes it interesting … pity that it’s so far away. I would gladly pick it up for you!

What about a video call with the guy? I do that for almost everything I sell/buy…

Nope, absolutely nothing concerning about that…

It’s in Luxembourg, a tiny country where never anything happens. The only criminal they have is likely on vacation :slight_smile:
