This is why we shouldn't have allowed the 70's to happen.

The only good thing about the 70s was My Sharona.

yeah, i've been watching this on ebay. the only thing that troubles me is that the guy mentions that he is not a player and that the neck is bowed. which leads me to believe that it must be really bad for a non-musician to notice.

No offense but probably because you tend to like things in really shitty condition. Like when you told me to leave my bronco as it was when I bought it.

That's true. I don't purposely distroy something, but if it's already ruined, I'll just go with it. I finally did paint my Bronco that was in crappy condition.

This Jazzy is beyond help. I was thinking maybe until I say the back of that headstock... :shock:

if the guy posted outside of the US i'd be on that like a rash. all i'd do would be to take the fucking horse thing off it, get rid of the stinkbucker and change the bridge. i honestly wouldn't touch the rest! not straight away, anyway. fuck sake, international shipping isn't THAT much more hassle.

Sellers that won't ship outside of the USA annoy the fuck out of me. You'd think it was a huge ordeal to do so.

Assuming the neck isn't totally fucked up, it looks like it would be a fun restoration project.

Oh, and LULZ at the magic mushroom sticker:

Most US sellers will mail out if you drop them an email 1st. The only real difference is the customs forms.

It'd probably be a pretty good project and not too difficult as long as you're gonna respray a solid colour, although there's probably about a hundred people thinking the same thing! :lol:
