Or not, hoping someone will buy a bass that appears to have an unplayable string.
Instead of dropping the price and relisting, why not correct the "photo problem"?

Hi, looking at the photo in ebay it seem that the G string is too much close to the edge of the neck, while in the headstock photo it seem right, so i guess there is a neck / body coupling problem or a warped neck. Can you post better photos ? Thank you |

I have responded and answered all questions put forth to me regarding this bass , ok ,so one string is/or might be a bit off , neck is perfectly straight , , ever hear of adjusting a bass to your playing standards ? when you go buy a new car ,you sit with the salesman in the dealership and go over all the aspects of the car and your deal , , when you buy a used car , you hope to get something good ,but knowing acknowledge that you might have to do a bit of work to get it to where you like it !! you know the old saing " it is what it is " . . . too many tire kickers lately ! i personally would be a bit apprehensive when i spend $10,000 , , but when i buy a box of cereal , i tend to just buy it and enjoy it . . people should just play their basses and get a life ! |

Good to learn the there is no photo problem and therefore you've represented the bass very accurately with your photos. While your description doesn't mention that only 3 strings are playable, a picture is worth a thousand words. PIPPS wrote: , ever hear of adjusting a bass to your playing standards ? Sure, and yes, having all strings be playable one of my personal "playing standards."  PIPPS wrote: . people should just play their basses and get a life ! So, you're saying that forum members here shouldn't discuss lefty basses for sale?

Yes, I'm "persnickety" because I want my bass to have 4 playable strings. What a nit-picker! A 10%er! Stay away!
