SOLD LOCALLY:::CLOSING THREAD:::Still not sure about doing this, so this is a feeler only. I may pull this so apologies in advance if I do. I'm the original owner, have had this bass for approx. 17 years. In 2002 I sent it back to Modulus because of a warped neck. They replaced it, free of charge, with a new neck with the truss rod "intonation adjustment" option. The serial number on the neck reflects the 2002 build date for the neck only. I've never had to make a single adjustment since she came back to me.
Specs are,
17MM spacing,
EMG pups
EMG BQC pre
AAAA grade quilt top
There is players wear that you could expect from a 17 year old bass, swirling on the face, some fading on the bridge, one of the pots is a bit crackly when being turned, but the bass is dead quiet once you set your tone. There is a scratch on the back approx. 2" long, does not go through to the wood. Overall, the bass is very clean considering it's age.
The EMG pups and pre sound incredible, very aggressive and by no means "sterile" I always get rave reviews on the tone from soundmen and players. Only thinking of selling because I rarely play her anymore. My Ritter classic and Lakland DJ5 are getting all my play time. So maybe it's time for her to go to someone who will give her the time she deserves.
I'm asking $1800 for her, with the modulus hardshell case. It's a bit ragged, but is sound and all latches work well. I might consider a partial trade for a Genz Benz shuttle.
Here's some pics I have, will take more detailed shots and post over the next day or so. The GK3B pup shown in the pictures is not included. It was attached with 2 sided tape, so no holes were drilled, finish is perfect.

Thanks for looking, and please, no low ball offers. I'll be very happy to keep her.
