I got this bass used so I don't know for sure what woods were used, but based on other basses in the gallery of the Marco website I'm guessing that the top is probably maple.

Any TB community wood experts out there able to help identify these woods? Thanks!

Monday bump! I contacted Marco to find out what woods were used in this bass and will update the original post as soon as I have more info.

In the meantime, here are some types of trades I'd be interested in, +/- cash on either end as needed (max amount of cash I can add is probably $500):

- Moollon P or J, ideally a J5
- Lakland Skyline P or J style, ideally a P4 with a J neck
- Nash P or J
- Sadowsky Metro
- Fender P or J

The list goes on, hit me with what you're looking to trade and we can work something out!

cool. Thanks.

I've had some cool trade offers but nothing that has quite clicked. Thanks for the offers though!

Also some of you have asked for sound clips, so here's a little groove that I laid down to show what the B-string sounds like:



This is with both pickups on and the tone all the way up.

Let me know if you have any questions or other trade ideas!

Some more cool trade ideas, but still available as of now. $75 off your purchase or trade if you want to meet in person in Oregon and save me the trouble of shipping!

Local deal pending! In the meantime I had a question about what type of hardware is on the bass. The tuners are Gotohs, and the bridge (as far as I can tell) is a Hipshot A-style with the quick release string slots.

Thanks for looking!

Traded, thanks guys!
