hello everyone! I have a Caparison Dellinger Bass that I am looking to sell or trade. I don't know the exact year of production but from the specs I am guessing it was made in 2006. This bass was used on 2 world tours by the band Job for a Cowboy, and it shows =) There are numerous dings, finish checks and the back has a gratuitous amount of buckle rash. The tip of the headstock was chipped and professionally repaired. Other than that cosmetics, it plays fine.
The fretboard has the signature Caparison clock inlays which look bad ass on a bass! I have owned a 6 string Dellinger and a 6 string Horus and this bass plays and looks like the Horus.
You can look at the information on the bass here:

I have a few pics of the bass on my photobucket and I will be taking close ups of the flaws tonight.
