Vintage 1940's King Bass for sale

This is a 1940'S King-Moretone Bass which I've had for about 4 years. The serial# on the bass is 10247 or 10243 can't really tell about the last digit!! The string length is 41 1/2 and the bass is a 3/4 bass from what I see and the bass sounds great. I had gut strings on the bass when I was playing it but took them off to put on another bass. I play un-amplified music so, I don't use any pickups or amps.. The bass cuts right through the big band and sounds better away from the bass!!! I'm selling it to try to buy me another bass which I have been wanting for awhile now.. please feel free to ask me any questions about the bass!!! sale= $2500

Jeff did some fingerboard work on it and I added the gut strings to it. For those who want to know, I live in West Orange, New Jersey. Let me know if their are any other questions about the bass !!!
