Details

Ok, this one kind of hurts as every bassist should have a P-Bass in their stable (and this is a P-Bass Killer IMO) but I am more of a Jazz neck shape guy and there are some really nice Jazz basses in the classifieds lately. This is (I believe) a '78 sn but not completely sure as I was told it could be a 1980..?. 3 piece alder body, maple neck with Ebony fingerboad and oval inlays. The tuning pegs were replaced with Hipshot tuning pegs and the pickup is now a Dimarzio model P which by the way, sounds incredibly awesome in this bass. The original Yamaha High Mass bridge is really cool. Comes with OHSC. Bass has honest player wear but neck/fingerboard in awesome shape. The headstock bears most of the dings/scrapes and the body has a few dings but nothing really bad. Recently set up by local luthier and electronics touched up and functioning perfectly. The bass is a 9-9.5 lbs on my bathroom scale.

$500 OBO shipped within CONUS.

I can't believe there isn't more interest in this... open to trade/cash deals. I'm looking for an Xotic BB bass pre, Maxon FL-9 flanger, Genz Benz NeoPak 3.5 maybe...

Dammit! I wish I had the cash, I would buy this up in an instant. I LOVE my BB300 and would like to have a backup. Good luck with the sale.

thanks for the comments! I won't be sad if I keep this for a while, it's a great playing and sounding bass. It's the best P-bass I have had for sure. The reverse P is more to my liking than the regular P-bass position and these Yammies just look really cool IMO.

* Wren & Cuff Pickle Pie "B"
* Maxon FL9 flanger
* Genz Benz NeoPak 3.5 amp
* Genz Benz Uber cab
* The right jazz bass body
* Barge VBjr

I'd consider trading plus adding some cash for the right Alder/rosewood 4-string jazz bass (no mexi's), Zoom H4N, Genz NeoX 112T, Maxon FL9. Worst I can say is no..
