Classic Series bass too.

Did he have a fur-lined Alembic?

Bill, tgo

The pictures of the first bass suggest that a lot of the hardware has suffered significant corrosion.  A potential buyer should perhaps be concerned about the electronics.

I think you might be referring to his Alfurbic. ;-)

Those match the two from Mica's recollections when Dusty passed. Agree with Dave, that corrosion on the Exploiter Series is severe. Suggests a wet environment to me.

The case and its contents show a lot of water damage as well. It is the type that makes me think it was wet for a long time.

I do want to say surprisingly  the starting bids and estimated prices appear realistic.

I'll take it for $1250!

I do recall the fur-lined guitar and bass Dusty and Billy sported during the Afterburner (or was it Eliminator?) Tour. No idea what they were.

They were using furry Dean instruments.

Here ya go.  It might need a trip to the dog groomer.

I think a sheep shearer might be more appropriate.
