I was told there was just over 10 hours playing time on her and judging from the fretware ...I believe him. Everything works as it should. I was going to have the frets leveled, being it sat in a case in a closet for well over 10 years, but now that I am selling it, thats up to you the buyer. I polished the frets and bridge and brass nut. Shipped in hard-shell case modified to fit this bass(not original). Pics are from original owner 32" scale 8.6 lbs on digital bathroom scale basically I paid $1708 shipped to my door. I need to clear that after shipping and any PayPal fees.I am charging more on other sites, but this is the family price!!!!
