So, I got this on a trade and it's a great bass, but (try as I might) I'm just not a 5 string kind of guy. In all honesty, this is one of the better 5ers that I've played, but I just don't use it to its potential.

Anyway, it's in pristine condition - no dents/dings/scratches/fire damage etc. Wine red finish is flawless. Electronics are working perfectly. This thing has a great sound to it, but it's just not getting used in my rotation.

Let's throw out a price of $280 250 shipped CONUS. I'll include a gig bag with it. Pics will be forthcoming.

Need the cash more than trades right now, so changing to a FS only for the time being.....stupid car problems.

Thanks for looking!

Bump for a very cool Tb'r. This used to be my bass and it is a very cool passive 5 string; has all of the bread and butter Fender type tones one can imagine and it plays great. Sorry it did not work for you Jason.

No worries, Keith - just time to make some space and the fiver's not my thing. It was a good ride while it lasted.

Of course, if I can't sell it, I guess I'll just have to tell the wife I'll find the space somewhere

These basses are pretty popular so I cannot see you having it very long for less than $300.00.

Bathroom scale says this one is a hair under 10 lbs. Should be a fairly accurate estimate.

For my money, maybe the best reasonably priced 5 string made. Ingenious bridge design makes the B string quite usable without going to 35" scale. Very good value.

True - I do like the design on the bridge. A clever way to make the 34" scale with a tight B.
