You are looking at my Epiphone Jack Casady Signature Limited Edition bass. It is in pristine condition, as you will see in the photos. I have made a few upgrades which enhances the already super tone and playability of this remarkable bass. First, to counter the dreaded 'neck dive', I replaced the tuners with Hipshot Ultralite's in black. This not only eliminated the problem, but I believe it looks super! Also, I replaced the bridge with a Hipshot in black, as well. Finally, I added a thumb rest. All original hardware will be included as part of this auction, as will the hard shell case pictured. This was a limited run of 500 in the silver burst, and you don't see many for sale! Following, is the description of the bass from the Epiphone web page.
