Thanks for all the interest. I received several good trade offers and was very seriously considering one but decided to sell for cash. Bass has been sold.
I have a near mint condition Tobias Classic. Woods are quilted maple, purple heart, walnut, Wenge. See pics below for the camera's perspective.
Bartolini pre and pickups
Bass boost and cut
Mid boost and cut with mid-cut boost switch
Treble boost and cut
pickup pan-pot
Push/pull slap eq on volume knob
Very versatile config possibilities.
34" scale with 24 frets.
Comes with Tobias hardshell case in excellent condition.
There really are no imperfections other than possibly a couple very, very small indentations. No real belt rash to speak of. Instrument has been kept in its Tobias case always. Never dropped. Very well cared for. Bass has power!
I really do like the instrument and am only considering parting with it for three reasons. 1) I just don't really need the 6 strings and 2) would prefer a 5 string at this time and 3) I'm just not playing enough right now to justify it. Other priorities in life right now.
Everything is in top condition, all electronics work as expected and are super quiet. Neck is great. Seams, bookmatching, mounts, fretboard are all very, very nice.
For trades I am interested in 5ver's. Love Smith, Elrick, Tobias, MTD, Sadowsky, FBass, Warrior, the like etc. Let me know what you have to offer.
Edit 8/23/09: lowered price to $2100 shipped OBO
I have a few trade offers I'm considering but would prefer to sell outright. Make me an offer.
