I had this exactly the same 1998 Corvette except 4 str. Recessed strap lock was really cool looking. It had super thin and comfortable neck and passive electronics. I really like to buy this if I could afford it, although the price is really good still.

Good luck on your sale!

Hey bro... had someone call today about the Jeep. Keep your fingers crossed.

Also, I have a question and was wondering if you might be able to answer. What, if any, are the advantages of having bone saddles instead of whatever other materials they usually use? I've seen the bone saddles on a couple of different basses now and have wondered about it every time I see them. I'm assuming it has something to do with the sound (obviously) but am wondering what different materials in the saddles do for the sound? Thanks man.

If i'm not wrong it has to do with sustain(i think i read it somewhere)but to be honest i would not be able to tell the difference since i got it with the bone saddles and i never tried it with the factory saddles.
Anyways i'll keep my fingers crossed,you like the bass a lot and had been in contact all the time so it will be cool if you get it.Also i need the money real bad to pay(myself back) for the bass that i'm paying tomorrow for.
again good luck

I think it's about 9 lbs. but i'm not sure,i don't have a scale at home.As far as the neck dive....the few times i used it for rehearsal it didn't feel that bad.

understandable.......
things are really weird these days,hopefully economy gets better.

On my part i need to sell it to payback for the money i used to pay for a nice Spector i bought here.It was my "emergency"
money that i've been saving in case i loose my job.

Got some interest from some folks so hopefully it'll be gone soon.

Good luck to you anyways
