PMs replied. Folks the price is negotiable (a little bit) but please don't waste time with a lowball to see if I'll bite.

A little honesty here. In my opinion...
Though the new preamp/N3 pickup combo on these next-gen Deluxes are quite an improvement over the old model, I am strongly considering a Nordstrand PU/Sadowsky Preamp upgrade. I really, really like this bass a lot but having owned a NPJ4SE equipped Sadowsky Metro HPJ (see avatar), I miss my old tone. I'm realistic though, if I stick 500 to 600 into the upgrade, I'll never get it back in resale. I'm a flipper and I have to take that into consideration.
I have older NYC V5 P/J and two minty Metro RV5's P/
Js lined up so if my Deluxe sells, I'm set. If not, I upgrade. I'm not giving this baby away.
