This is just a feeler, this bass totally kills, but I have some summertime projects coming up where I could really use a bass with a few more sounds (mainly a bridge pickup)
Pics are from original TB'er I bought the bass from. Overall is clean, few chips on the finish back of neck and some light wear, but nothing major.
This is the ultimate short scale bass IMO, plays and sounds amazing, and NO neck dive which has been an issue with my Alembic and Gibson short scales.
Here are also links to Bruce Johnson's site - he is best known for his Ampeg Scroll bass replicas. His work is amazing, rather than describe it too much visit the links for better info.

This is serial #5 and I think there were only 5 made.
All passive and a short scale tone monster - this is a crazy good shortscale bass
I am in no hurry to move this, I have my eye on a few basses that may be better fits for my projects, but I can make this work if I have to. I literally bought this bass 4 minutes after it popped up on TB. Not like I am impulsive or anything...
$1450 shipped ($150 more than I paid, but I got a brand new iGig bag for it so just adding that into the price)
