I am the original owner and this has been my baby for the past several years. Plays great and has a killer B string, as well as a great finger style and slap tone. Action is low and neck is dead straight. There is a light gloss on the body where fingers pop for slapping (only visible close in some angles of light) and light wear on tuning pegs, as visible in the pictures. Someone is going to love this bass as much as I have! Located in Vancouver, BC but can ship from Washington state if necessary.

I wish it had one less. I sold one just like it because it was a 5...

That is one hot bass. I own one just like it. That is a smoking deal for a quality instrument.

Not to clutter, but these are not a ''compromise'' like other brands' affordable lines

Feels so great, sounds so versatile, and this is selling for way less than I would sell mine

$1350

Great deal !!

Thanks everyone! LOTS of interest in this bass, although I do not yet have a firm offer on the table, so please feel free to message me if you're interested! I'd like to get the bass moving this week. Great price on a killer bass.

I don’t have the cash, but if this god-forsaken thing is still here tomorrow morning when I wake up, I'm going out and robbing a bank to take care of things, proper.

You folks with disposable income should be utterly embarrassed that you haven’t snatched this up yet at this price.
