Yep, for months, along with the Antigua Coronado guitar.

Yeah, I want this bass BAAAAAAAAD.

But... I want a lot of things, so what's new.

:lol:

Kinda strange, when those came out I REALLY hated them, I kinda like them now, just feeling nostalgic I guess.

I love ugly/weird color schemes for some reason... My buddy has a custom built heavy relic Strat... it's nitro shell pink over seafoam green with a tortoise pickguard and beat to hell... it's unbelievably cool looking.

Bass Club Chicago has a righty master built P-Bass relic in "Ocean Turquoise" with a gold anodized pickguard and it's the ugliest/most beautiful thing I've ever seen. :lol:

I've said this before, but I either love or hate the Antigua finish depending on the shade. When they look silverish, I love them, but when they look snot green - ew!

Actually it's the 4th time we talk about this bass. Fivebass52, since your are the one who posted it previously and apparently you don't remember, I recommend a cure of phosphorus for you, as well as ending this deleterious life-style you entertain on this island of yours. :lol:

Usually I make a dumb comment such as "That's the bass Harrison Ford played (or should have played) in Indiana Jones" or "it's so kitch it's hip"...I think I am running out of dumb comments at this point but I still love this bass.

I think initially it was priced at 10K so if we wait a little bit it might come down to a price some of us are willing to shell out.

Frenchy, not sure what phosphorus will do to cure me, but I'm up for anything! Yeah, Sometimes "Polynesian Paralysis" gets the best of me!
