Hi John, Nice bass! A few items that will be of interest to most here will be: What is the scale length? Does it come with the power supply and cable? Does it come with the OHSC, tools and paperwork? Do you have more pictures? Thanks much and best of luck with your sale! Art (Message edited by artswork99 on June 11, 2010) |

I have EVERYTHING but the paperwork, which when dealing with Guitar Center at the time, missing certificates and wood cards was more the rule than the exception. |

Yes on the pics. Currently, the bass is at a dealer/friend's store. I will go there and take some detailed closeups tomorrow or Tuesday. That said, the instrument is in perfect condition |

It's in Tampa, Rick. I will say that this has a woody warmth to it that I haven't heard in other Series Ones I've encountered. And my bassist has 3 of them. |
