Details

Just picked this up a couple weeks ago and it's a fantastic bass. As superficial as it might sound, I don't really love the stealth look, and don't have any gear fund left I switch out all the hardware.

Black/black/ebony 4 string with Sadowsky pickups and electronics. Weighs in a hare over 9 pounds on my postal scale ( 9 lbs, 0.6 ounces to be exact). Sounds and plays great. Some wear shown in the original forsale thread below. Nothing that affects playability.

Here's the thread I picked it up from - bass is in the same condition except that I switched the black pearloid out for the flat black. Both are included, as well as the Valenti branded Protec bag.

Looking for a sale or trade for another 4 or 5 string bass. I favor Fender/MusicMan/G&L/Lakland etc. basses.

Would love to trade this for an AVRI 62 or 63 p bass, Big Al SSS, pre 2008 Stingray 5 (extra points for late 80's/early 90's Alnico), Classic Stingray or Sabre, or similar, or a less expensive passive p or j plus cash (is there a CAR MIK Glaub in the house?). Open to just about anything though, so don't be shy.

Removing the forsale portion of the thread for now. Realizing that it would take more than the sale price to bring back a bass of similar quality. Really only interested in trades for now. For reference, the listed sale price was $1050 plus shipping.

Here's one from the previous forsale thread for the time being. To show the black pearloid guard.

And here is the bass as it stands today - both guards are included.

Removed the "forsale" portion of the thread - trade only at the moment. Really just looking to see if there are any cool trades out there. Local deals are preferred, but will definitely ship for something that catches my fancy.

Have no qualms about holding onto this - spent some more time with it last night and it really is a great example of Nino's work.

Wondering if I may have said "no thanks" to too many deals, but the right one hasn't presented itself yet.

Anything else out there?
