I am super tempted to take it for myself, but I already have a Stingray on the way and I am also eying an acoustic.

So here it is for the lucky one, this model is the Diamond P

Haha! I didn't even have time to post the reply I was writing!

Great deal on that!

Black, in like new condition for $179.00.

I think that with taxes and shipping it came to $220 or so.

Great deal! I've been eyeing some of the schecters as a cheaper fender alternative. That price is approaching squier territory!

Having own at least 6-7 Schecter basses at one time or another, I personnally feel they are severly underrated.

You can get a great used Schecter in the $250-350 range and you'll get a lot for your money.

So... didn't think much of it?

Seriously, though, I'm curious. A three-sentence review, maybe?

Well just wanted to give it a try!
Also i have an expense to cover.
Overall surprisingly good bass, in excellent condition. Low action and a chunkier neck with a good array of tones. 9.12lbs as far as i remember but plays really smooth. On the listing you will also see detailed info about it and a video demo. The price is still a great deal for such nice bass. It currently has flatwounds strings on it but i am not really digging it. But at the moment i don't have any other set of strings kicking around.

Congrats, Yolly!

Paulo: do you have a link to the demo now that the listing is now gone? I'm curious about P/MM combinations, but there aren't a lot of good demo videos out there for them.

Tim, you can still open the same link and see the video demo there. But it has to be from a web browser, i've noticed the mobile app do't show videos on the listings.

This guy is reviewing the same one even the same color (righty) but he is speaking in French. Listening to the bass should give you a better idea! ;)
