VIEW FULL LIVE VERSION : FT: My TBC AP-500M for your TBC 4 string

I just cannot get used to 5 string basses yet being the beginner that I am... so, I'd like to trade this bass for it's 4 string brother.

I bought this at the beginning of the year from fellow TB'er Dr. Cheese (who bought it from TB'er Moro a month earlier).

34" scale
Swamp ash body
Maple neck
Pau ferro fretboard (19mm spacing at the bridge)
8 lbs 8 oz.

It plays nice... but is a little noisy. Shielding the cavaties could be a huge help? From reading TBC posts this past year this seems to be a common occurance.

The strings on it are what was on it when purchased (Rotosound light guage nickelwounds). I've put less than 5 hours of time on it. Almost perfect condition, no blemishes. Comes with original TBC gig bag.

So if you have a comparable TBC 4 string M, MM, MJ or PJ (sorry, I have a few Jazz basses already so no JJ's please) I would love to trade you. Must have gig bag. I'll share the shipping charges with you.

Any takers?
