C'mon guys. That gold is cool, especially with the sparkle! The only thing that would be an improvement is a couple of fuzzy dice inlaid on the neck. And how about if every time you throw the Q switch, the bass automatically plays the macarena or the chicken dance, depending on the adjustment of an internal trim pot?
Actually this reminds me of something I once read about Jose Canseco. Canseco was an outfielder who came up with the Oakland Athletics baseball team in the 80's and looked like a sure thing for the Hall of Fame. As it turned out, he had a billion dollar body with a five cent head and wound up wasting his talent and becoming a laughing stock. Anyway, a writer once described how he went out and spent $70,000 on a new Jaguar, and then spent another $20,000 customizing it to look like a Chevy Camaro!
