Hey Y'all,
The latest victim of my constant churn is this cool Godin Shifter bass. It has a 1.5" nut width (like a Jazz bass) and a very nice satin neck (very few necks work for me and this one seems to pretty well). A nice trans blonde finish that lets some woodgrain show through and a maple board.
The controls are a 5-way switch, volume and tone with the tone have a push/pull pot so you get 6 pickup combinations:
neck alone
neck & middle
neck & bridge
middle alone
middle & bridge
bridge alone
with a volume & tone control. It is in like-new/mint condition (and I don't say that lightly) and will ship in a nice Godin gig bag.
These basses are made in North America (Canada & the US) by Godin but priced like imports.
I'm selling because I prefer my own 3-pickup bass that I modded from a G&L Trib SB-2 (DiMarzio Will Power neck pickup, MFD P & J).

I'd love to trade. Stuff I'd be interested in:
Reverend Rumblefish 4
G&L SB2 (US)
G&L L-2000 (US)
G&L JB2 (US or Tribute)
all G&Ls need 1.5" nut width, under 9lbs and satin necks - I might go for a fretless SB2 or L2K that met those criteria as well
