**SOLD**

I closed my old thread to clean this up and update trades, etc.

This is a great bass with an awesome feeling neck on it. I have been playing it more and won't be sad if I keep it. The bass has a new neck as the one that it came with had a slight "twist" in the neck which kept the bass from having as low action past the 12th fret or so. The neck is still playable (for medium/low action) but I got two different luthiers to look at it and long story short, sent the bass to Carvin and had a new neck installed and setup done. The body has a few small dings in the paint (not the wood), just typical gig player wear.
Here are the deets: Alder body, black finish with tort and black pickguards, 9.5 lbs on the scale, Neck has a rosewood board, SS frets, Ivory tusq nut, satin finish on back of the neck, matching blk headstock with ICON headstock shape. Active setup with J99A's, Active/Passive setup with J99A's and Carvin 2 band pre with passive tone control and active bass/treble controls. All the other typical SB5000 features, OHSC. (I'll include the old birdseye maple neck too which as I said is still playable).
$1000.00 shipped with the old neck and extra pickguard** OBO price ok (if you don't want the birdseye maple neck).
