RehpE80ES2COHirvo5SnKw.jpg kjasEqLNRTuEIGdBlSJQfg.jpg Set up by James Condino in early late 2019 or early 2020. He checked all seams, planed the fingerboard, installed a new bridge, made sure the sound post was correct, new tail gut, etc. There are no issues with the neck. I cannot swear that it has never been worked on but Condino gave it a clean bill of health. This is a great sounding bass and pretty loud. It is running Evah Golden Slaps but I can put guts on it if that is your preference. (I think I have a full set of used Gamuts.) Mensure is 42 7/8" It comes with a fair share of dings and scratches but none effect the playing or sound. Comes with a Messina case. Perfect fit and nicely padded.

String length, (mensure) is 42 7/8”. As you probably know this can be reduced with a false nut. Supposedly not a big deal but only your favorite luthier can tell you.
I cannot be sure that my approach to determining if it’s a D or Eb neck is correct so I’ll just say I don’t know for sure BUT, I will gladly hook up on ZOOM and determine what it is per your instructions.
