Color: AAA quilted maple stained trans black with rosewood stringers and natural maple center

Mods/Upgrades:
The bass was great as it was, but I wanted to do some modding to it. I prefer passive basses, so I took the pre and original pickups out and replaced them with Seymour Duncan Spb3 Quarter Pounders. The potentiometers are Bourne's, and the stock knobs were replaced with a set that has abalone inlays.

The bass will also come with the original pickups, preamp, and knobs as well.

Condition:
The bass is in great shape. No major dings or dents, a few surface scratches on the back from being played against a button up shirt. Nothing that could be photographed though.

Bump for a fantastic bass. I love the headstock. Excuse my ignorance but is this supposed to be like a trans-black? In the pictures it appears to have a purpleish hue.

Also, does it come with a HSC?
