This is the infamous bass pictured in my avatar. Solid Ash Tri-burst finished body with a really sweet grain to the wood, custom Ken Armstrong passive humbuckers with vol/vol/tone and a series/parallel push pull pot on the tone knob, Maple neck with rosewood fingerboard, and Hipshot hardware. I have installed dunlop strap locks and the pickguard is now a lovely tort. This is a beefy bass with a great tone, but it has a very P bass feel to it and try as I might, I just cannot get used to that feel. I hate to see her go, but I'd rather someone get her that can use and appreciate her. Hardshell case, of course, is included. I'm seeking $1300 or best offer. I have this as a feeler for now because if there is a lack of interest or too low of offers, I'll just keep it as a backup.
California resident near OC: you are more than welcome to check it out if you wish, just pm me and we can schedule arrangements.

This is a cell phone pic to show how nicely Tort contrasts with the Tri-burst finish. Easy to see why I changed.

The greater LA area has more douche nozzles per capita than anywhere else on Earth.

You should look into one one of these days, First Act Customs are top notch!

For kicks and giggles. 
Anyways, good luck with the sale. That looks like a killer bass
