I talked to the seller about a month ago. He had an add up on Craigslist, but took it down, as he changed his mind about selling. At the time, I remember he said the bass would be sold and shipped for around 1350. Seemed like a nice guy, who might have been willing to even go a little lower. Hope this helps! | ||

Nice top! As for the reserve, this bass, an Orion 5 in "near perfect condition" with a nice Walnut top, should go for considerably more than the current high bid of $810. For me personally, I would factor in the cost of getting a good hard case; but that's just me. | ||

Yeah a soft case is no good at all. | ||

The seller said this bass was born on 6/23/2003 and has the MXY56 pups. He can't find the serial number, I searched through some threads and told him to search under pots, preamps, and pickups. Are there any other places to look for the serial number? | ||

It must be on the back of the headstock and (if i'm not mistaken) in the control cavity, both stamped directly into the wood. |
