*** This has a neck issue where even with both truss rods maxed out, there is still forward bow. I bought this knowing of the issue and hoped I could completely fix it with lighter gauge strings, lower tuning (ala Dug Pinnick), and further truss tweaks. But I was unable to get it with low buzz-free action. That being said, the bass is not unplayable... If you can tolerate higher action and/or some buzz in the upper most frets, then she sounds absolutely phenomenal! Price reflects this defect.
I'm trying to raise funds, so no trades please.
Specs:
- Made in USA custom shop
- Gorgeous transparent blue burst over flame maple top w/ matching headstock
- Ash body
- 2-pc maple neck with birdseye maple fretboard
- Fat Bartolini humbuckers
- Bartolini 3-band pre w/ active passive switch and more tone shaping via dip switches in the controls cavity.
- Dual truss rods (functional, but not functional enough!)
- Chrome hardware
- Grover tuners
- Schaller bridge
- Dunlop Super Bright stainless (40-100) strings & GHS Boomer Piccolo (18-50) octave strings with only a few hours on them.
- Will include original Washburn hard case or Washburn gig bag, buyer's choice. Both are in excellent condition.
- Other than the higher action, this is in excellent condition.
