I hope nobody on here bought this.The pictures did not show what the finish really looked like.

The checking is not desirable, but it is sort of normal.

Not to be contradictory (but I guess I am) but... with "relic-ing" being such a fad for a while now, there may be those who do want it, especially if it's the real thing.  Anyway, you can't hear the checking, unless maybe you're Eric Johnson.

Mine has it too.  But since I’ve had the bass since 1985 I am sorta proud of the checking.  Very awesome bass.

Its a nice bass ,looks to be all original but there pictures didn't show what showed up at my house.They offered me 50.00 off of 1325.00 but they also offered to take it back and pay for return shipping.They treated me fair in my book.

Sucks to not disclose the actual condition of the bass.

People pay a lot for dudes to do that to new instruments. With a razor blade or by freezing the body. 🙂

So did you keep it or send it back? I am a little confused and I promise I haven’t been drinking today..,though there is still time!
