SOLD!!!!!!!!
This should not last long. I have a natural (refinished) USA Peavey TL-5 (Tim Landers edition) 5 String up for grabs. Comes with the original hardshell case (banged up but functional). These were $1700ish new. This particular one has some cool features:
Solid flammed maple wings (not just laminate top like most basses)
Cirrus pickups (only the last handfuls produced came with Cirrus pickups)
3 Band EQ with Mid Shift & Boost/Cut
Plays AWESOME and the tone is to die for. Very tight B for a 34" scale (tight as most high-end 35's). Frets are in great shape and action is damn low.
Song clips done with THIS BASS by another TBer:

Now for the issues (minor):
Bass was blue and refinished by another TBer. Overall, he did a good job, but there are a couple minor spots where you can see a little blue (under the knobs, a thin line where the neck meets the fretboard and a small spot near the bridge). A little more sanding and you are in business (but you really can't see these from 5 feet or more away right now). Also one of the EQ pots must have come unsoldered. I have not opened it up yet, but it was replaced a little while back and I'm sure that it's just a cold solder that needs to be re-soldered.
Other work that was done to this bass recently:
The bass has since had a very thorough cleaning and given much love and attention any high-quality bass deserves.
Any screws with wear or rust were replaced with the exact part from Peavey.
The mid shift pot was also replaced with a direct original part from Peavey.
The truss rod wrench (Peavey style) was also gotten directly from Peavey...
This is an amzing player and tone monster. It's truly a USA boutique custom shop bass for a junk-import price. So here comes the low-giveaway price............(drum roll please)..........$375 (+ ship & PP fees if you choose to pay me w PP). At this price, I have to ask for PP fees (3%) if you pay me that way. Money Order is cool too (they cost $1 @ US Post Office). Pics later, but you may get in line or even reserve it now at this price. this won't be here long!!!
