COULD IT BE TOO REAL TO BE TRUE??

I guess some of you overlooked the post where another TB member already bought this bass and resold it! http://www.talkbass.com/threads/marcus-miller-v-mint.1133021/

Don't think that was the same bass

yes-
is this an American Marcus Miller?

So a guy posts about a mint Marcus Miller fiver for sale in Canada on Saturday. The next day an identical bass also in Canada shows up for sale on TB with the seller saying he isn't the original owner! Seems too real to be true!

It is a 5-string, it is MIA. It is Fender Custom Shop to be specific.

Serial numbers were the same. Do your research.

Same black strings too......

 

[gjbassist]

Good eye! I didn't even think to check the serial number!
I'm not a conspiracy theory kind of guy but something just seems odd about this whole situation. What happened to the OP? Not a peep out of him since starting this thread.

yep, that's the one. The pickup cover had been re-installed on the TB ad's pictures. Better pictures, too.
