hey I found this in the trash, cracked the headstock off the OEM neck so threw that short scale on it -- the one p/u didn't work so I put dimarzio 6 string units in it, strung it up lefty and rocked the shit out of it for 2 years.

here's a video of me playing it so you can see what it sounded like:
remember my vids are camcorder-for-fun and not off the mixing board :)

I think I need to go dumpster-diving in another neighbourhood. I'm tired of picking thru a ton of righty basses :lol:

Seriously- I'm amazed at what you guys have found. Nice one!
