FS: Parts Bass

This is a bass I have used for experimentation for the past 5 or 6 years.
It's hard for me to even remember what I have tried with it.
It is not pretty underneath the pickguard to say the least.
However, it actually sounds decent and the parts on it are worth something.
I think that it would be a great starter/backup bass. With a new pickguard and nut, it would actually look decent. .
The action will go pretty low and it has level stainless steel frets. The neck is as straight as an arrow and VERY solid.
The original tuner holes were the incorrect size for the tuners currently installed. The holes were filled with dowels (rather sloppy) and re drilled. It's a solid install but, doesn't look great. Would be pretty easy to redo correctly.
Parts list:
-Seymour Duncan Vintage Jazz Pickup
-1 5/8" Warmoth P bass maple neck (with an interesting flame)
-Wilkinson Tuners
-MIJ Bullet Bass Body with original Bridge and neck plate
-Ernie Ball strap with strap locks
-Graphtech nut (broken but repaired and functional)
-No electronics (pickup is wired straight to input)

$150 shipped or make an offer/trade

I want to stress that although this bass does not look great, it is fully functional and actually does sounds really good.
Sounded the best with a Thunderbird pickup in it.
