SOLD FS: Sunbust Variax 705 w/ all supplies

Hi TBers,

I just got this bass a few months back, but a chance to get a bass I've wanted for a long time just came up. The original thread can be found here: http://www.talkbass.com/forum/f126/two-variax-705s-warwick-thumb-5-a-986022/. The only flaw is a tiny chip near the belly cut.

I've had a Variax 700 and a 705, and they are great playing basses. Some compare their playability/craftsmanship to Fender MIM basses. After owning two MIM basses and 2 Variax basses, the Variax basses are a bit tighter in the neck pocket and adjusted better to where I like to play compared to Fender MIM.

Anyhow, this bass is in the same shape as when I received it (or better since I polished it) and it's ready to go. This bass is FS only, and comes with original Line 6 bag in great shape, DI/power module, AC adapter, and a TRS cable for only [DEL]$800 shipped [/DEL] $750 Shipped CONUS! Here's your chance to own an awesome modeling bass!
