    Had this up as a complete bass (I guess I still do, for now) and no interest to speak of so will offer the loaded neck for [DEL]$175 shipped[/DEL] SOLD. and the loaded body+neckplate for [DEL]$265 shipped[/DEL] SOLD. Standard Fender neck heel (and neck pocket). The neck has a 21st fret with Warmoth-like overhang. The Rio Grande pickups are super hot, and the active 2-band EQ is boost/cut with center detents.

    ***More info and pics HERE.***

    I want to keep this just 'loaded neck, loaded body' for now but PM me if you are interested in something specific...

    From the original listing:

    This is a solid Ash body, not a lightweight but that likely adds to the 'hugeness' of its tone. The pickups are I think the hottest I've ever used, mated to a 2 band active EQ (9V) that reminds me of the early Stingray 2 bands. Controls are volume, bass, treble (both tones have center detents) and a 3-way switch. The pickups are both humbucking and not currently split although you could extend out the wiring should you choose. Overall the tone lands fairly close to a Stingray HH/Sabre with perhaps a little bit of a Fender Blacktop Precision thrown in (pickup placement is a lot closer to the Stingray/Sabre though).

    Flaws/wear of note (all pictured below): Some scuffs/etc on the back and side (very thick finish though so nice for the most part); two small holes on the back right under the neck tilt access hole (I have no idea how or why); and a small spot where the finish has been chipped off near the pickguard on the inside of the upper horn.

    Trade interests: ebony board fretless neck, piezo-equipped fretless electric, tri-coil Sterling pickup (esp. a Nordstrand MM 4.3), +/- cash as appropriate.
