This is a response to Rumblefishers feedback - I've already left positive feedback and I stand by it - he closed the deal, paid when he said he would, and did everything you would want a buyer to do. I'm only addressing comments made about the condition of the bass here.
I take great pains to describe any item I sell here or elsewhere as thoroughly as possible, to offer a description that I would want if I were the buyer. I'm convinced I met or exceeded my standards. There were 14 pictures of the bass on my media page, in the sale thread I directed and requested buyers to look at them. My description was as thorough as I could make it, pointing out the flaws as I saw them (including photographs of said flaws), and indicating that the bass was a player, not necessarily a beauty pageant winner.
From my listing-
"The Bass is an early 2000s vintage wine red/rosewood MIM P-bass. It's got some nicks and scratches. The rout for the pickup is not pretty, that's why I keep it under the pickguard"
"It includes a well worn SKB case that isn't pretty but it protects the bass."
I guess a second pair of eyes will always turn up a few different flaws on any used item. At any rate, I'm glad Rumblefisher is pleased overall with the deal.
