    Surine NTVII 5 string.
    Cocobolo top and back w/ matching headstock. Mahogany core.
    7 piece neck
    Birdseye maple fretboard
    35 scale
    Nitro finish

    When i purchased this bass it had a destroyed truss rod. I contacted Surine and he offered to cut the wings off and build me a new neck. The neck is brand new. He left the original scuff marks on the bass to keep it a used bass. Theres dings and scuff marks on the body of bass, also there is a stain in the finish from the 5th to the 7th fret. Its from the Mono gig bag I used to ship it in. I later learned Nitro and Mono gig bags are a big no-no. Stains everytime.

    The nitro isnt flawless. looks like it could've used another coat and some buffing. Plays and sounds phenomenal.

    Bass will be shipped in a Surine GigBag. $2000 shipped conUS

    I love this bass but 35' is not for me. I'm looking for a straight sale but Ill entertain trade offers. IMG_20141228_123113.jpg IMG_20141228_123152.jpg IMG_20141228_123132.jpg IMG_20141228_123146.jpg

    It has an OBP-3 aguilar preamp.

    Their are no markings on the pickups. Looks like the Nordstrand Fat Stacks, red and black and white leads

    Meant to ask - what is the string spacing, the weight and what does the headstock look like? I know you want a cash sale, yet I will sacrifice my Alembic Orion 5 for this, either through outright sale on my part or trade!
