They're good basses. I've had one for a few months.

I luv my VM fretless !!

They are nice basses (i have one that has since been modded).
If you buy the one in the ad you get no warranty and no guarantee.

It is not much more for a new one and honestly I wouldn't buy
one that is so close to new price. The saving are not that great
and the headache could be enormous.

Just my 2 cents.

If you're interested, let the seller know. Maybe he/she will let you demo it to see if fretless is your thang! Never hurts to ask questions. It tells me that the seller is a TalkBass user (or member), because of the reference in the advert. Plus, since it's NIB, the warranty may transfer over.

Pacific Northwest by location. Chicago by heart (and birth)!

I bought one when they first came out and still keep it around. Wasn't perfect, but it got me into playing fretless and led to me getting a higher end fretless bass.
