I purchased this bass new 3 or 4 months ago. It has been in my house smoke free ever since and has maybe 15 hours of playing time on it. I'm asking $450 shipped for it but am open to trades for a Squier Vintage Modified Precision V plus some cash, or something like that.
Full disclosure, when I got it the G string was too close to the fretboard so I replaced the nut with a carefully filed allparts blank, not sure of the part number but it is great now. However, it was really tough to get out so there were some nicks in the finish up around the nut. You can barely notice it now, but it was worth a mention. The nut is now in place and the action is awesome.
This bass is loud and great, but I couldn't help myself when I saw an American deluxe jazz...now I'm just thinning the herd and this is one of the casualties.
