    MTD is all that's left! Would consider selling it and the OBP-3 separate for the right offer.

    Cleaning out all of the basses I've accumulated but don't play since I got my short scale. $550 each + actual shipping, cash discount if you pick them up locally. Money order preferred, but I'll take Paypal if you insist. I have excellent feedback, including several trades where I shipped a bass or cab across country sight unseen. No cases or gig bags included, but available at cost. Only trades I'd be interested in are [DEL]amps (heads or pre+power combos), or[/DEL] a Fearful or Big E cab. Partial trades + cash accepted for a small mixer or an SX P or PJ with the old headstock style. Pics are mostly bad cell phone jobs, happy to take more if you have something specific in mind.

    [DEL]First up is a Made in the USA Peavey Millenium Plus 5 string in very good condition. Gorgeous flamed blue maple top, very very sharp looking bass. Sounds absolutely gorgeous, and if I needed a 5er it'd be staying. One of the best deals on the used market, this plays as well as a $1000 bass. 35" scale, Pau Ferro fingerboard, graphite reinforced bolt on maple neck, active VFL pickups with the Millenium "Custom Shop" pre with sweepable mids, Hipshot bridge and tuners.[/DEL] pv%2520in%2520case.jpg

    Next is a lovely red MTD Kingston Artist in good/very good condition. One of the last made with an ash instead of basswood body, and it comes with the Buzz Feiten tuning system. It's light and payed like a dream, but is currently a semi-project. I pulled the guts apart and bought an Aguilar OBP3 set up for 18v but have yet to install it. The Aguilar is the TK model, comes with BMT pots. Save money on my laziness before I solder it up. :) Pics are from before I pulled the pots out.

    SOLD! [DEL]Finally, a rare and gorgeous Ibanez Roadstar II RB950. The body resembles a Rickenbacker but definitely not a clone. Blue bird's eye top, in surprisingly good shape for such an old bass. A pair of massive quadra-coil pickups with V/T/B controls. The V and T are push-push to single coil tap each pickup. Absolutely massive tone, it's been described as a blend of Ric, MM, and T-bird. If the other two sell first I'll probably keep this.[/DEL][​IMG]

    8lb 12oz according to my scale. No idea how precisely accurate that scale is, but that sounds about right.

    Ibanez is gone! My amp needs are met, so my only trade interests are cabs (fFearful, Big E, Audiokinesis), DI's, mic's, mixers, and old headstock SX P or PJ's.
