Sorry for the delete and re-post! I couldn't change the thread title to reflect the new asking price, which more accurately reflects market value. Thanks.
Here we have the Mid level of the MTD Kingston series, a MTD Kingston Z5 in Great condition! Still has the plastic on the control plates on the back
This bass plays like a dream and doesn't have any real visible signs of wear and tear. The only issue is that one of the bridge screws vibrated out on the B string saddle used for height adjustment. When I head in to teach lessons tomorrow, I'll see if they have a replacement. This is a great bass for a great price. I'm not looking for trades at the moment, and any reasonable offer will be considered. These basses sell new for $1189, so $775 shipped in a hard case is reasonable!
Here are the electronic specs:
MTD's Kingston KZ 5-string bass is loaded with reversed split coil humbucking pickups wound to exacting specs and attractively housed under burled maple covers that match the top wood. The active electronics, tuned by Michael Tobias, offer bass, mid and treble tone controls, pickup blend and master volume. All of the circuitry is tucked into a shielded body cavity to ensure an extremely low noise floor. The Buzz Feiten tuning system will keep your intonation dead on. 35" scale, 24-fret neck, MTD Quick-Release bridge, and a double-action truss rod are other pro features.
Here are the bass specs:
