Details

NO TRADES Far from mint, has plenty of dings and scrapes and a spot of buckle rash on the back. The neck is so clean I almost expected it to be a different body, but they do match 8-2011 #4(4 of what I don't know). Frets have no wear, truss adjusts perfectly and neck will go beyond straight, no issues aside from it looking like a vintage bass, particularly the faded white color. Comes with a new gig bag. 1 5/8" at the nut, also has Lollar pickups.

$1400 Paypal Shipped CONUS, will ship anywhere but shipping price and method of payment will vary. NO TRADES

Do you know what pickups are in these? Also, is the neck radius 9.5 or how would you describe the neck profile/shape?

Just took the pickups out, and it actually helped verify for me that the screws are "relic'd" and not actually aged/rusty/unstable. They are Lollar, then written in white is TR Neck (or Bridge) 2011, cloth wiring and the pickup wire is protected by wrap inside the plastic(I wish everyone would do that).

Regarding the neck, I don't know the spec or have the tools. Also in my experience Chris, like most builders, doesn't get back to you very well unless you're buying something. I just measured and it is 1 5/8 at the nut, it definitely feels smaller than that though so more to the flatter side than round but a comfortable balance in between.
 
Indeed this bass appears to be one of a series of jazz basses Chris built in various vintage colors a few years back. Checked these out at Low End Bass Shop and they are stellar instruments as his usual builds are.

Also, still waiting to hear back from you from 2015 when I asked you about the center indents on the controls of a bass I bought from you on Reverb...granted I don't have that bass anymore so it's a bit of a moot point...

So I just went through my Reverb messages from way back then and my apologies for not replying to you. I had several messages that day and your message unfortunately was lost in the mix.
