Now $1150 shipped!!
Up for grabs, '91 Modulus Q4 that plays and sounds great! Here are some specs:
*Cocobolo top
*EMG pickups
*Active 2-band Eq
*Gold hardware, very clean
*35" scale
*Very slim neck profile, plays fast!
I believe the body is made of ash (not completely sure). The sound is very punchy, clean and articulate as you would expect from a Quantum. Now the bad part. Many years ago this bass was dropped by a previous own and a small part of the lower horn cracked off. It was then professionally repaired and the repair job is solid. I bought it post-repair and it's very stable (there's no real stress on this part of the bass anyway). The job was so well done that up close it merely looks like there is a crack in the finish -- you wouldn't guess it goes all the way through the wood. This defect is comestic and doesn't affect the performance of the bass in any way. But, due to the damage I'm pricing this low at $1200 plus shipping $1150 shipped(hardcase included).

Bump for a great Mod!
