I regret having to sell this bass, but have to let it go. I was able to get my hands on a Rumblefish R5L and is the only reason why I am selling. Excellent looking and sounding bass. One of the earlier Mercalli 5's and have not seen many with rosewood neck, block inlays and binding. Price is based off what others sold for and includes shipping in Reverend hard case. I'll even include a set of DR High-Beam strings that were recommended for this bass!

- Thick Brick, MM-style bridge pickup. Reverend says: Warm and thick with strong mids. Output and punch like an active, but more organic sounding. 42 gauge wire, ceramic magnet, 8K ohms.
