Can't figure out what's going on with this one for $169.99 :

Ridiculously cheap for a neckthru with Gibson USA pickups. No picture to go by, but it could be a steal if it is as advertised. Says condition is "great." It might be worth a call in the very least.
That stinks. Is it nice enough to consider keeping, despite being advertised incorrectly? If so, perhaps GC could refund you accordingly.This turned out to be the standard bolt-on neck version, not the neck-through version.

I really like it so far. Quite a bit different than anything else I've ever played before!Thanks. Only wanted the neck through. Left it at store, full refund.
How's the Hofner?
Great! I played my Hofner CT today as well, it is one of my favorite basses. Super easy to play, vintage thump and huge bottom end. Any idea what kind of strings it came with?I really like it so far. Quite a bit different than anything else I've ever played before!
I'm almost certain they're Hofner (LaBella) Beatle Bass flats. They sound and feel terrific.Great! I played my Hofner CT today as well, it is one of my favorite basses. Super easy to play, vintage thump and huge bottom end. Any idea what kind of strings it came with?
Those taper to the core wire after the nut and are light blue silk. Great strings.I'm almost certain they're Hofner (LaBella) Beatle Bass flats. They sound and feel terrific.
I've accepted the fact that anyone you get on the phone at a GC is either a liar or an idiot. Not every time, but 9 out of 10. It's still a fantastic resource for buying used because of the return policy.
