Sign in to disble this ad
This is a Midnight Blue (thanks everyone) Ric w/ black hardware. Serial # puts this as being built in January 1998. Currently has a clear Pickguardian Bridge Pickup Plate; however, the original cover is included. This bass is dead-mint - no chips, scratches, buckle rash, dings, player's wear, etc. (Edit: there is some wear on the inside of the top horn in the binding; just found it yesterday while taking some new pics). No issues whatsoever, weighs about 7.5lbs on my non-digital scale. Open to trades +/- cash, not looking for anything in particular, just something different...
Edit: putting it up FS, as well. Have a couple trades that I'm considering, but enough people have asked, so...$1950 is a good starting point, I suppose. Will certainly entertain reasonable offers, as well as trades. (If the price is unreasonable, plesae feel free to PM me, thankyouverymuch.)

Either way bump for you and the tied for coolest Ric color ever made other than satan's personal Red/black binding Ric.

Besides, Azureglo was phased out in the mid/early 80s (but also much cooler!). The binding is independent of the colour. |

Midnight blue IS metallic, a good bit darker than 'lake placid blue".
That's all it really can be; they did not make that many blue colors.
To me, "matte" is a sheen, not a representation of metallic or solid.
No big deal but it looks like Midnight blue to me. |

I know, very general, but I'm not really looking for anything in particular. I love the bass, just looking for something different. |
