Got a new bass so have to let one go. Bought new in 2012, absolutely no issues. Though I've gigged with it a number of times, it still looks brand new. Feels like a work of art in your hands with the mother-of-pearl neck, sparkle blue finish, etc. Very popular with audiences (and lots of comments from the ladies!). Made in Korea.
Sounds great with strong low mids. Dunlop straplocks installed. Professional set-up by David Shepherd of Level Frets Guitar Works. Non-smoking home, etc. etc.
Price is $395.
From the Italia website:
Maranello basses boast a unique tonal spectrum from the harmonically positioned pickups and fantastic string-to-body coupling from the massive bridge assembly. All feature Italia's unique floating control plate, stop tail/bridge combination, and two Wilkinson Bass Humbuckers.
Neck: Bolt on Neck w/Hardrock Maple
Fingerboard: 22 fret Rosewood
Scale Length: 432mm / 34
Body: Agathis Tonewood
Pickups: Wilkinson Bass Humbuckers
Bridges: Combination
Headmachine: Italia Die-casting
Optional Finishing: Mother of Pearloid Back
(Noticed that the tuning hardware etc. looks gold in the headstock photo. It's actually chrome.)
