Wow, Gary, that really came out nice. I'd agree that a pearl white pg would look great, but it's fantastic as it is. I admit to a large degree of jealousy!
Same here
That bass is sure making the rounds...

Apparently...I don't like sunburst. But I do like refins
Also, sorry LPB. It's not you, it's me.
Ha!
I think it must be due to them trying to recoup Feebay end fees.
I mean that seller will eat 10% feebay end fee and then 5% or so for paypal.
So he looses 15% off his asking price right there.
Now his asking price of $2,800 just got him a net of only $2,380.00....
Then if he is offering free shipping, there goes another $80.00.
So he would be down to a more realistic price if sold on here of $2,300 if paid no fee.
Buyers are now paying more than many items are truly worth on that site due to the increased fees.
I would say it is worth a strong $2,100 - $2,200 range right?
44-07's kick major ass! I know mine surely does.
seems so? I could not be more pleased with my 44-07.
Dead mint like the day it was made. Rare bird

Yup.....love my 5507....maybe it needs some loving this weekend...
I love mine, and I bet you'll feel the same about yours. It sounds great with flats, so I'd say the TIs will probably work out great.

Wow... I haven't even chimed in once in this whole thread?
Anyway, I offered the dude with the SFG more than that when it was posted here and he refused. It a cool bass, but it's not worth what he's asking or what he paid for it. The dude selling the Mai Tai does that all the time, he buys it here cheap and tries to sell it for a bunch on ebay. He is the same guy who got my gold JO back int he day.
I know people are free to do this, but it still kind of bugs me. I've seen quite a few 'sharks' that don't contribute to the TB community other than to poach a deal and then turn and burn.
I've been trying to find some specs online, but not finding much. The good thing is, I know some of you do know. Which stock pickups should a 2008 Duck Dunn have?
If the lead wires are black and white fabric covered, they are Fralins. black and green, they are Hansons.
I remember I took a huge hit on a bass, and it was listed on eBay for twice what the buyer lowballed me - before they had even received the bass...
Huge bummer.
Thank you. From what I've read, I think the Fralins are supposed to be the better of the two (subject to personal taste of course).
