This has been my main bass for the past 4 years. It's got a super chunky, stiff Warmoth neck that is 1 & 11/16" at the nut, the finish on the back has been stripped and sealed with Feed N Wax, and the fretboard edges have been rolled. No significant fret wear to speak of, and the fretboard is nice and dark. The body is a late 70s Fender (the previous owner told me it was a 1978, but I can't verify that with the neck shim. He said it was originally a fretless P, but it was played to death so he replaced the neck with the Warmoth. All the work was done before I got it). It's got a unique P/J sound -- both pickups are Fralins and the controls are set up like a jazz bass. Tuning machines (a bit tarnished) and bridge are both Hipshot, if I remember right. The bridge is top-loading. I'm guessing two of the knobs and the pickguard are original to the body, but shielding has been added to the back of the pickguard. I replaced all the pickguard screws when I got it, since none were original (and many were missing). Weighs 9.5 pounds on my bathroom scale.
Let me know if you have any questions. It doesn't have a case, but it will be well packed for shipping. I do have a Protec Contego case that I might consider letting go for a little additional $. Paypal for $550 shipped in the US. Thanks!
