Description:
This 10 year-old bass is in excellent condition. Has worn flats it's entire life... so there's no fretwear. The neck is perfect.
It has the "Joe Osborn" name on the front of the headstock, which only the first 100 JO basses built had. Also the back of the headstock sports Joe's signature. The weight is right around 9 lbs. Unplugged it's very resonant. Strung with Sadowsky flats. The body has a couple of dings and a small scatch but are not very noticeable, not enough to make me change the pricing.

Here is a pic of the signature on back of the head stock.

PM'd ya. What a beauty!

[the nasty rumor]

There was no Joe Osborn model in 98.

I'm pretty sure that didn't happen until a few years into the 2000's.

[the nasty rumor]

Nope, guess i was wrong, BP reviewed it in 99...

[the nasty rumor]

and now i feel old and senile. I got my first lakland in 97 or 98, it just seems weird that that the joe was so close on the heels of my 55-94.

I owned this beauty too. What a great bass

[Big String]

Thanks guys, it is a very nice instrument and a classic.
If you're looking for a passive bass with tons of ol'skool vibe this one has it. It can bark like crazy too.

[BIGREDSIX]

I have played this bass and it is a wonderful instrument. You won't be disappointed! Bump for a great guy and a sweet bass...

Any trades considered?

[peterpalmieri]

I might have to contact the mods you obviously are having serious mental issues for selling this bass and for such a low price.

Good luck!

[Big String]

Not really looking for trades, especially bass cabs.

Hey Pete.
Well.. with all honesty I know it's worth more. But what I have sunk into it expense-wise it's a fair price.
