Beautiful Rapture. Lightweight and fast. Wide neck. Cherryburst over Ash, birdseye neck. Matching headstock. The Bart 2-band pre burned out for some reason and has been replaced with a Suhr 3-band. Is set up for 9v but can be 18 if you can find room for the battery. OHSC and neck adjustment tool included.

Has a couple of nicks - one on top horn, one on bottom below strap button.

Great bass, but I have a Watts and a Regenerate and need the cash. PRICE DROP! $[DEL]1100[/DEL] $1025 shipped to CUS. SOLD!

Are you the first owner? How are the frets?
If preamp has been replaced to 3 band, is treble and bass on knob top/bottom? how is it configured? How would you compare original to suhr?
 
I bought it from the original owner, a friend in Dallas. The knobs are now Volume, sweep, stacked bass/treble, mid.

The Suhr preamp is a nice one, and I'd say it's a bit brighter and open than the original Bart (they're sometimes a bit dark). It opened it up a bit. To really get the benefit of the Suhr, a second batter would be in order, but I never found a good place to rout (and routing a perfectly good bass scares me).

The frets have some wear, but not that you'd notice. This has been out of rotation since I got my Watts and it is now a distant third on the rotation since my new Regenerate P. It's a great bass and was my main player for 2 years or so. The neck is rock solid. I've never had to adjust it and it's still nice low action.
