GPOTD 10.31.11

[Help!I'maRock!]

Year: 1984
Manufacturer: Guild®
Model: SB604 Pilot™ Kahler Tremolo
Case: Soft
Color: Black
Condition: Very Good
Description: It has new, replaced tuners of the same style as the originals, with no extra holes or customization to accommodate them. The originals were worn out and didn't hold tune well. The standard aluminum knobswere replaced by red chickenhead knobs on instead, because they look great and match the red DR strings it has on it. The Kahler tremolo is factory original and works great. With the new tuners, it holds tune well. Comes in a Gator soft travel case that fits it well and protects it. It has the original EMG PJ pickups, which are active and sound great. These Pilot™ basses are USA made and vastly underrated for what they are.

$799.99

I have that trem on my BC Rich, but that Pilot is double ugmo.

 

[jaxn slim]

Possibly the ugliest bass I've seen to date.

 

[Chad]

That sums it up for me as well.

 

[SpeedRacer]

It's perfect for a Halloween gig.

"Vastly underrated for what they are."

A steaming pile of clown shit?

 

[BlackCat]

Well that's 1984 for you.

 

[Tralfaz]

vastly underrated for what they are.

In other words, it's a steaming turd, but its steam has an intriguingly complex bouquet when compared to other steaming turds

It burns the nostrils.

Didn't Ben Orr play one of those back in the 80s?

 

[Knox in Box]

I almost bought one of those in Panama back in 1991 faor like $350.00. Get those red strings off of there and I'd do it.
