Gorgeous, but a little too ambitious there on the price. I'd say it's $750 too much.
SO I just spent the last 4 hours going through my preamps. I have a drawer full of Cirrus pre's some work, some don't and some have lifted pads from installing them so many times in other basses. I'm getting super fed up and frustrated. I have had SO many problems with Milli pre's. They seem to get static interference, cut out, etc. I've tried cleaning solution spray Deox, and finally gave up.
The two pre's I just bought from Amber are for G-basses, so there's no blend pot. I tried taking the blend pot from another pre and ended up pulling the pads, too. UGHhhh...
So, now I have a bolt on without a pre.
I think I will try installing the Audere Pro Z I have laying around to see if that sounds good.
Any suggestions are welcome !

Thanks ! Since I have the Audere though ...
I did ask for suggestions, though. Thanks Jordan.
The preamp for the G-Bass is exactly a Cirrus preamp with only 1 pickup and few other soldering joints. Do you have the schematics?
The main issue is that the custom alpha potentiometers (they called them spider pots but they are technically PCB leg mounts) is that they have a different shaft length and diameter from what you can find. If you need some more I might know a guy (I bought some to fix my former G-Bass).
If you also have a B-Quad pre (or the entire bass to be honest!) and you want to get rid of them just let me know!
I'm not, but there's one on CL in Minnesota. I'm a four string guy, or I'd definitely check this out:

Before I bought my Millennium in 2000 I had one for a year or two. Purchased new around '98/'99 IIRC. Import, 34" scale, very comfy and balanced, 9v 3 band pre, boost only. Really nice bass for the money imo.
No not made in US. Still a lot of bang for the buck and much nicer than the current imports imo.
The Fury looks like it has Cirrus electronics, as in the ones used in the BXP model.
The pickups are the same as the Cirrus but the preamp is different. The electronics sound very good on these basses but not quite as good as the USA Cirrus.
The Fury 5 and 6 were made in Korea. I have a very similar Millennium AC BXP for sale. It is almost identical to the Fury but was made in Indonesia instead of Korea. I owned a Fury 5 for a while and IMO this Millennium plays and sounds better. The electronics seem to be exactly the same as what was used in the Fury.
The Millennium is for sale and I'd like to move it. If someone here wants it, I will make you a good deal on it.
For Sale/Trade - Peavey Tiger Eye Millennium AC BXP5
I had one
BXP ac and I threw in a millennium preamp…
Should have kept it
SOLD - Peavey millennium BXP with USA millennium pre upgrade
It sounded similar to my GV I realize now
Bolt on right? So it felt like it had the same string feeling/ vibration and decay
but If I remember right I feel like it was definitely brighter then my GV now

There any memberships left? Picked up a TL-5 (rev 2) a few weeks ago for $300. Finally got it set up and cleaned up a bit. Thing sounds like a very expensive bass! That neck thru, ebony board, oval inlays, look deluxe as hell, and the pickups/preamp have a ton of character! I'm excited about this one!
