Anyone near Buffalo NY recognise this Cleveland?

This closed on ebay with no bids, but I'm talking to the seller...anyone recognise this, or maybe could go take it for a spin for me?

Ugly painted American Standard

This seller has tried to sell this bass 3-4 times on Ebay and hasn't had any bites yet.

For one, he's (she's) wanting too much money (IMHO) for a painted bass. The tuners are not original as well. The seller suggests that they don't know if the neck is original or not.

If it were me, not getting to play it beforehand, and realizing these things stated above, I wouldn't offer any more than $1000. And, I'd really have a bad need for it or just happen to have $1000 I didn't need to spend somewhere else at the time.
