This bass cost abouth $179 at AliExpress and he's trying to pull $1400 out of it. Not cool.

I kinda like it. :oops:

Does the AliExpress one actually have a fake Gibson logo on it, or was this one somehow modified?

I'm pretty sure it has a Gibson logo and I also like it but not for the price that guy is selling it on Ebay specially passing it for am original Gibson.
$179 is not a bad price if you cannot find a real one...

I'm not familiar enough with Gibsons to accurately point out the differences, but here it is on AliExpress:

Thanks for watching out for this! Did somebody flag the ad already? If not, I can do so.

I reported it but it seems more people needs to report it in order for Ebay take action.
It was blocked a few months back when it was first listed.
