    Hi TB,

    Up for sale is this incredibly beautiful Modulus Quantum 5 (Q5) from 2000. The bass sports an AAAA quilted maple top, two powerful EMG DC40 humbuckers, a phenolic fingerboard, black hardware including Schaller strap locks, Gotoh Res-o-lite tuners, Hipshot A-style bridge, and Modulus' world famous carbon fiber neck.

    Included in the sale are the bass's original hardshell case (OHSC), wrenches and keys, owner's manual, and two EMG 40J pickups and an EMG 40P pickup with quick connectors for fast and easy installation. The bass is in very good condition but does show normal signs of playing wear. It weighs in at ~9lbs. Everything on the bass is fully functional, the neck is quick, and the tone is beyond incredible.

    I would consider selling the bass without the 3 additional pickups for a lower price :)

    I have an American deluxe jazz from 2013 or 2014, don’t remember exactly. It’s clear ash with maple neck and black pearl block inlays. I’ll try and post some pics.

    17mm at the bridge, but the bridge does allow some modification to the spacing so you can adjust it more toward your liking.

    Don't play 5's, but this one deserves the good old, gratuitous "if only it were a 4-string, it would be mine" comment. Beautiful bass - GLWTS!
