I'm a little suspicious about how he describes the top, but you're right, this is a killer deal!!

I remember this one well, seeing as I actually sold it when I worked at Bass Central, and then shipped it when I came to work here. There's no myrtle on the bass, anywhere, it's all spalted quilt maple for the top. There are some "odd" switching options for the pickups, but overall, this bass was a killer.

Seems to be a heck of a price on it. I would pay that much for it in a heartbeat, if I was in the market.
