That was AzWhoFan’s then mine. I desperately have wanted this bass back, and I can’t afford. It’s amazing.

It's a beauty alright. And the price seems more than fair. But I'm also not a V-er.

Right? It looks amazing. I had massive sellers regret on this one. Trying to get it back as we speak.

That’s the best seller’s remorse remedy! If you’re lucky enough to find it and you did, congrats!

Thanks man. This bass went on a lot of touring adventures with me, including an amazing trip to Guantanamo Bay. I was just thinking about this axe the day before it popped up on reverb. Crazy!

Wooo! Marc what year was that bass again? Isn’t like a ‘98 or so?

It might be as early as '96. I seem to recall buying it around early '98.
Dammit, now you're giving me a 2nd round of sellers remorse. :mrgreen: :mrgreen: :mrgreen:

EDIT: Back in the day, GC had expanded with 3 new stores in metro Phx around '96 or '97. I recall the guys at GC saying the SR5 was one of the basses brought in for the opening ... so there you go! They had a 2nd SR5, but it was nowhere as nice as this one.
