What's the history of the actual bass? I actually emailed the craigslist guy a few days ago...

I bought this bass about a year ago from a Guitar Center in California. They ahd listed it on eBay and I started to bid on it until I saw an identical listing and a much lower price.
I contacted GC and and actually bought direct from them.
The bass has been showing up ever since in scam ebay and other listings.
This happens to be my favorite to play and I have no plans on selling it.

Here it is at home woth it's bros'

I'm starting to think that you should be extremely flattered Olie.

craigslist scammer emailed me. Wanted me to use something called buySafe. What a tool.

Shoot an email back that says, Really! Awesome. I'm in London too. When can we meet up so I can see the bass?

I would love to hear the response to that.

Dunno, already told him we're onto him, etc. I'm hoping that will discourage a future try. Sorry to ruin your fun :/

Craiglist pulled their listing but eBAy still has it listed.
I notified them again.

There must be something wrong with your camera, Olie - the e-bay listing clearly stated that this bass has the P/J pickup combination .
