so here's my new jedson SG copy shortscale...
it's pretty awesome, lots of thumpy bass tones, sounds fantastic with a big muff.

i had an old ibanez steve lukather sig guitar that I bought at an auction for a great price and I traded it to the guy +$40 to get this bass for under $100.

I'm happy with it.

Am I the only one who thinks that looks like a anorexic persons ribcage?

True that, it's got some uggo contours.

maybe you'll like it better from a different angle? (not my bass, just a picture from the web)

I dunno, it's just those contours are so awkward looking to me, fantastic body shape, but eh, still brings that image of a anorexic person's ribcage showing threw their skin to my mind.

I didn't really mean that I don't like it. As Sillyrabbitband said, the contours just look awkward.

I quite like SG bass's but not with those contours. Looks crazy.

Haha, possibly. Although Simon Le Bon circa 1982 used to tie a sash around his forehead and suck in his cheeks to get that exact look.
