Dude... is that your spine on the MRI???

genstormbringer · « **Reply #3 on:** April 30, 2011, 04:14:09 PM »

Yes it is. I need to go light weight. That is why you see the Berg and the MarkBass stuff. The Berg is for Sale thought as is the MoMark SD800. I am staying w the SD1200 a very solid head. I may keep the Berg.

My condolences... has surgery been offered as an option?

genstormbringer · « **Reply #5 on:** April 30, 2011, 07:03:34 PM »

You didn't see me in the neck brace? I did opt for fusion artificial disks were too risky in my condition. My spine was compressed 90% by the time I went in for surgery. I was still walking and still playing albeit not very well. My Dr. was amazed that I was still functioning. He stated that I should have been in a wheelchair and that I should have been taking pain medication but I was doing neither.

Price for local pickup $5650 unless I am driving to you then it's $5750. make me an offer I will not be offended. I would rather keep it here and on TalkBass.

Ouch- feeling your pain here. I had a spinal fusion (lumbar) about 18 months ago. Totally successful for me- am back to doing sprint/Olympic length triathlons and don't feel any worse for wear.

Good luck on your sale- love the maple top on that bass. More importantly, I hope your spine behaves from here on out.

Man, Lanis, that image is scary - more so since next week I go meet the surgeon to talk about the MRI that showed a cyst growing into my spinal canal (lumbar). Don't know yet what the options are, but I do know it hurts like a m-erf-er! Can't even play acoustic standing up - can't imagine what the 3XO must do to you. And no meds? Are you nuts?!?!? Couldn't do it. Sorry for your pain, and for the need to sell.

You are not alone by a wide margin Peter....
I wonder why we spinal mutants end up loving these Alembics?

Oh well, don't mix your Oxy with your Crown Royal.

I also feel your pain.
In 2003 I had 3 discs removed in my neck, and 4 vertabrae fused with a titanium plate. Now I set off metal detectors everywhere I go...

I am worth a little more w the Titanium in my neck too

Price for local pickup $5550 unless I am driving to you or shipping it to you then it's $5650. make me an offer I will not be offended. I would rather keep it here and on TalkBass.

$5350 Local pickup and cash get a little better discount

I wish I knew how to upload a MRI. Probably better though, don't want to scare everyone. 5 operationson my spine. 2 Cervical 2 disc removed and 3 vertabrae fused 2 rods 1 plate 9 screws.
3 Lumbar operations in 2 weeks. Dual rods across 7 vertabrae with crossmembers 4 3 screws and nuts and bolts for crossmembers. All Titanium.
But I don't set off metal detectors. Titanium is an inert metal, non magnetic.
I couldn't hold a bass standing up for 2 years.
So I feel your pain. It's a shame you have to sell the Bass. Mine are heavy but I refuse to part with them. Good luck with the surgery if you get it. With all these dual rods I'm like an Alembic bass, except mine are not adjustable. I have a preset back relief setting that is permanent.
