I got this on a trade not sure if I want to keep this in my bass herd or not. plus I like to try out alot of basses
I would like to keep this to trades for now if you hae something I want of lesser value we could work something out
JC Custom Buckeye Burl 5 string single cut If you want to see it under construction, go to http://www.jcbasses.com and click on "progress blog," then "buckeye 5".
there are other threads on this bass out there it sold from $795 -over 1200 in the past year so who knows
here is some corrected info because some of the past posts were wrong !!
*Buckeye Burl Top
*Alder Body "Wings"
*Maple Neck Through
*Birdseye Maple Fretboard
*EMG J/P Pickups (in a humbucker shell)
*Hipshot Single String Bridge
*Bartolini Preamp
*Gotoh tuners Hardware
*Comes with SKB Freedom case
ok what people did or did not mention
* warwick style neck (chunky)
* large string spacing (think MTD looks .19)
* fit and finish not perfect
* there was some damage (build problems) above bridge pickup
* and around the tone knobs the buckeye had some structural issues
(i.e damage/ I did fix it with epoxy and can be seen up close and I took some photos to try to show it, and is stronger then it ever would of been )
its a cool and fun looking and sounding bass if I keep it I will probally get it refinished in the future who knows
here is the original sellers post

around the small knob you can see the epoxy slightly
ok as for trades, mostly looking for 5 strings, Electric uprights, Nice recording preamps, nice mics,
if you have it run it past me the most I will say is no!
