Just picked this up in a trade, but am now realizing that I'm not much of a banana player. 
And I know you're already wondering, so I'll answer now: yes, banana basses are GREAT for metal!!!
Nut width, as you can imagine, is fairly tight at .25 ". As you can also see there's a bit of wear around the pickups, and the inevitable chip by the headstock. Otherwise, she's in pristine shape though starting to smell a bit.
Will sell outright but for now looking to trade for maybe a orange, apple, or pineapple bass. Shoot me an offer, let's make this happen!

Also, this is a MIM banana bass. Case is already part of the bass. |
