I will probably regret this later, but I am offering up my BTB 575 for sale.
I started playing bass in January, and as much as I love this instrument, I am finding a 4 string better for my learning at this point.
I bought this bass new in February. It has only left my house for weekly lessons. It has been well cared for and is in better than new condition. I say "better than new" b/c I paid to have some fretwork done to address buzzing. I couldn't believe how nice it played after it came back from the guitar tech!
I seriously don't think there is a scratch on it, but I will give it a thorough look tonight to make sure. It has Elixirs on it that still look brand new!
Let's see, for those not familiar:
5 string
35 inch scale (tight B string!)
Mahogany body
5-piece BTB5 maple/bubinga thru-neck
medium frets
trans-gray, figured maple top (matching headstock)
Mono-rail II bridge
Bartolini MK2-5 neck pickup
Bartolini MK2-5 bridge pickup
Bartolini MK2 3-band EQ
I think this thing looks and sounds great. You can coax just about any tone out of this beast! I am only selling to fund a nice 4 string while maintaining marital harmony.
I don't have any pics yet, but here are some I found on the web. My bass looks the same.
This bass has been discontinued, but here's your chance to get one with a professional setup.
Asking $475 shipped in CONUS in original packaging.
Peas.
