What I'm really looking for is a Europa 5 of Rogue 5. Ideally with Series I electronics. Willing to let this 8 string go in my pursuit. Zebra wood. $4,500.00 |

It appears at one point the neck pickup Q control knob came in contact with something and resulted in this crack. I had a local luthier tell me it wouldn't be difficult to repair, but I left it the way it was. The Q control toggle switch also was bent, but everything still works fine. There is a chrome switch below the 1/4 jack that works as a stereo/mono control. |

I have the wood chip. The joint between the body and neck is stable and has never moved since I've owned the instrument (2002). This bass is a MONSTER! |

There certainly is some potential there, I have yet to do my taxes and am expecting some money back. Is there a case with this? Did the body damage and control cavity damage occur while you owned the bass? Was the neck/ body joint reglued? |

I believe that this is one I lusted over at one point - alas, my financial situation has changed... |

It comes with an Anvil flight case. body/cavity damage was done before I bought the bass in 2002. The neck/ body joint was never reglued during my ownership. The bass is still solid. Email me off line and I'll prepare some additional photos. |

This bass is now off the market. Thanks to all who have shown an interest. |
