    Price:
    2100
    Strings:
    5
    Location:
    California
    In great shape all around, no issues. No dings or buckle rash. 34" Scale, plays great with a tight B string. About 11 lbs.

    Recently tuned up by San Diego's best. I will keep the flats shown and restring the original rounds that came with it, I believe them to be Alembic but I am not sure. The fingerboard is the thickest slab of ebony I have seen on a bass.

    I have had it for two years but it's time to try something new.

    $TRADED - deal in place -

    shipped cUSA in a generic gig bag. Will trade for a Lakland 55-02 or 55-01 plus cash, other offers considered.

    To the best of my knowledge:

    Accent Wood-Purple Heart
    Body Wood-Mahogany
    Neck Wood-Maple/Walnut
    Fingerboard-Ebony
    Inlays-Pearl
    Veneers-Maple
    Top Laminate-AAA Quilted Maple.

    Thanks all, trade is in place...

    Apologies for the pics, I tried to link them from the built-in media gallery here at the forum, it must not work across all platforms.
