I just got this bass back, for the second time! It has made the rounds here on TB, but unfortunately, I have to move something, so this is up for sale with some other things.
Nobody seems to know exactly where this bass came from, and since I had it the first time, I think it has had 4 different pups in it. I've tried it with three, an EMG Select, a normal ol' Fender MIM P pickup, and the current pickup, a Seymour Duncan Basslines. The Basslines beats the crap out of everything else I have heard in this bass! Very thumpy and a beast tone-wise! The body looks to be ash, with a flamed/quilted maple top.
Visually, this bass is the complete package for me! The cherryburst is a beautiful finish and the flame/quilt is absolutely breathtaking. If I were to keep the bass, I'd toss on a badass and some flats and call it a day just based on my preferences. It's currently wearing a set of DR Lo-Riders.
The neck is 1.625" at the nut, and the bass weighs in at 8.5 lbs! A lightweight, killer p. I will not be disappointed if nobody is interested!!
My asking price may seem to be a bit high, but frankly, I'd prefer to sell something else first, rather than this.
Asking $550 shipped in a hardshell case.
