OK so no buyers after a few months of being on the market, so to the chop shop she goes.

I know this neck has a high asking price, but please consider what it would cost for all of that new: $433 for the parts, BEFORE having a luthier cut and install the corian nut, and drill tuner holes. It's a stunning neck that is in pristine condition.
-Hiphot HB1 tuners -
$65 Shipped SOLD
I believe these are the ones usually for G&L/musicman basses. They are what i had when this bass was put together and the neck was drilled to install them.
Body:
$150 Shipped SOLD
Warmoth Alder body
LPB nitro finish, has a semi-gloss/leaning toward satin feel
Finish has a chip near the neck pocket as is shown in the final picture. The finish doesn't feel like a traditional fender finish, it's more of a satin-y feel. Not sure on who/where it was finished; i'm the third owner. The pictured chip is the largest chip, and there are a few small "dots" on the back as well as normal scratches. Overall the finish is fair, but not pristine. This is a good candidate for Relicing or Refinish.

-dunlop straplocks
-white pearloid pg
-drilled for gotoh bridge, but bridge IS NOT INCLUDED
