James Tyler 5 string for sale

[funkythumb]

Hey all,
It pains me to have to sell my Tyler # 411. Yes, it's an early one in amazing shape. It has the Bartolini soapbars, Demeter pre-amp AND, get ready for this, the original high frequency Demeter chips that were found in the early Tylers. They give you an MTD high if needed by cranking the treble. It's a very dark, midnight blue color not black as it looks in pics. It's in perfect working condition with only cosmetic damage on the side and headstock. It's an amazing player and one of the good ones. I put a Hipshot bridge on it which improved the sound over the old Wilkenson. I'm selling the bass to raise money for another upright. I'm asking for $2,300 plus shipping. This bass will go fast. Don't drag your feet.

Hey Kenny!!! Yea, Keith A. has been filling me in about the details and history on this bass from talking to you.
It's a great bass and I'm soo sad to let it go. I don't know man. I wish I had another bass that I could sell as easily for as much.
I've owned it now for 3.5 years. I installed a new Hipshot bridge on it and dumped the Wilkenson.
Thanks for the vote of confidence!

Scale length and weight?

[funkythumb]

scale length is 34". Weight??? Medium, not too heavy. I really have no way of getting an accurate weight on my bathroom scale.
