I'll change it to advice. Still, congratulations you are the fist to fall to the joke that is and will be PSYCHOBASS. See what happens if you pay to close attention. :eek:

You confused me.

Is that a USA with the PBC neck. It is a twin to my 5er. How bad has the factory "mood ring" finish changed/ faded on yours ? I'd love to get mine re-finned, but I'd want it done so that nobody could ever tell. I have been in touch with Dave Bunker @ PBC recently about those basses. They were all built by him, in his shop. He even have a few NOS bodies and necks laying around. I tried to get him to build me a new one, but he couldn't get his hands on the hardware/electronics. Great Bass, NEVER let it go.
 
Yeah, but its the 100. Passive version. I'm hoping to find a ATK 300 body, to switch necks on. Hopefully either white or natural with a rosewood body.

Isn't that orange ATK a custom model for Greg Kiesel of the Offspring. I know for the longest time he used nothing but ATKs and had several custom shop models.
 
Today i'll be busy. I will work on my new azure ATK. bought yesterday so i'll make a setup according my style and i'll clean the bass.

I am still trying to understand which model is it (maybe a 500? or a 600?). I have never seen a bass with the same headstock wood overlay. at first sight it seems that the body is maple. not sure yet since the bass has a flame maple top and back cap. too bad the nicest flames are on the back....

bass is on the medium-heavy side. not really heavy but for sure not a feather. great fat sound, great P bass style neck (three piece maple). i think i'll dig it.

can you help me with the model identification?
