Looks like a nice bass - has a reserve on it, and I think the guy is looking to get somewhere near the $650 BIN price he has posted... somewhere in the $450-500 range would be a great deal for this bass...

His reserve should be like $375. He has a $67 Shipping Charge on this. These go for roughly $300+ range used from what I have seen. They are also very neck heavy. The body is a feather.

Not a bad bass if your looking to get into the 6 string territory and don't want to spend a lot.

I don't know why, I just don't don't like that headstock. I would put 400$ on it other wise.

Can't say as I've ever seen one of these go for $375 in the past two-three years (right handed, yes - left handed, no...) ... especially since they stopped making them a couple of years ago. They were offered new at $599-to-$650, and have sold used for $450-$500...
I do agree with you on the shipping costs - UPS ground shouldn't be that expensive, and that will definitely effect people's bids.

And another for the same price, although BIN only. At least the shipping is Free, although it's got a sizable chunk of color missing down by the strap button...

This one is back, and the seller has reduced the price by a $100... to $550 BIN... which is reasonable. Looks like shipping is up around $70 though.....

The guy was on CL as well, asking 525, and felt like it could be negotiable.

There are 2 versions of this 6 string bass:

One version has the bridge pickup VERY close to the bridge (like this one in LA listed)... I like that...

There is another version that the bridge pickup is farther away from the bridge closer to the neck. I had one of both in the past.

Wasn't aware of that, thanks for the info....

No intention of buying this bass, but no shipping to Hawaii first of all, and postage to my sister's house in Santa Rosa, Ca., from his address in Southern Ca, is $68... should be more like $30-$40. At least he's opening it up for bid.... but his shipping price may kill any bidding. Time will tell...

If you're interested I would contact him directly through CL - he seems pretty open to negotiate.
