    Price:
    600
    Strings:
    5
    Location:
    Pennsylvania
    $600/shipped

    I'll be done with my band after 6/14, so this proprietary bass will no longer be needed (Prince tribute band). I want to pay a cc down once and for all, too. This Peavey was top-of-the-line for the US Millenniums, as the "Plus" meant a figured top, and the "BN" meant a birdseye neck and board, and also a matching headstock. I've never seen another black violet one like this, so I'd say it's fairly rare. Yes, the original case is included.

    **Remember, this bass won't be available until after 6/14.** I ship ONLY within the US (Alaska and Hawaii have additional charges). Paypal is fine. Here are the specs:

    Alder body w/ flame maple top
    Birdseye neck
    Birdseye fretboard w/ abalone dot inlays
    Body-matching headstock (wood is birdseye, though)
    Hipshot Ultralite tuners (confirmed via contacting the company)
    J neck pickup, MM-style bridge pickup
    Hipshot style-A bridge
    Peavey Millennium preamp (w/ midrange sweep)
    Dunlop straplocks

    Thanks for looking!

    Ah, my old purple/birdseye Millennium. Fantastic deal on a fantastic bass. I wish I played 5-string but... I don't. :(

    Oh is it that one? Dang, I may have to get it back. :smug:

    (mostly) kidding, folks. But seriously, this thing is better looking in person. Jump on it. Some pretty Mills available all the sudden.

    I shouldn't even be thinking about another bass right now, so it's a good thing the OP only ships within the USA (I'm in Canada), because the Millennium Plus in this exact configuration is on my wish (must-have?) list...:drool:

    I can ship it, if you have a pickup spot in the US.

    I don't, no. I am smack-dab in the middle of BC, a good 8 - 10 hour drive north of the border. Thanks though! :thumbsup::cool:

    I live in Canada right near the border and cross over at least once a week. I could grab it and ship it to you if you really want it!

    TerenceE, that's a very generous offer, especially considering you don't know me from Adam, but I will have to pass at the moment, as it's just not financially feasible for me to buy this bass at this time (I am between full-time jobs.) I'll keep your offer in mind though, and if things change for me money-wise soon, and the bass is still available, who knows...:cool:

    I acquired a four string version of this bass recently and have come to really enjoy how it plays. I have been considering getting an active 5 string bass again, and saw this not too long ago. PM inbound songwriter21!
