I did what I said I would never do and sold my Standard Point Series I. It had nothing to do with the sound or looks, but the ergonomics just didn't work for me. I'm now in the market for another Series Bass. I would prefer a short scale, but a longer scale length will also be OK if it has a LONG upper horn (balance and the first position "reach" is a big deal for me). Hit me up if you have anything. uberbass Junior Username: uberbass Post Number: 16 Registered: 9-2010 Posted on Friday, January 14, 2011 - 7:11 pm:    What's your price range? mike1762 Senior Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 736 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Saturday, January 15, 2011 - 3:20 am:    I honestly don't have one: I'm all about value. But I'm definitely not in the habit of over-paying for stuff. I failed to mention... I only want a fretted 4 string. "Bells and Whistles" (like LEDs) really aren't important to me. toddharris Advanced Member Username: toddharris Post Number: 288 Registered: 7-2008 Posted on Sunday, January 16, 2011 - 8:01 pm:    I am waiting to receive my 74 short scale series I back from a re-fisnish. Should have it by the end of this week. Will be listing it - it's light, fast and amazing - early green pickups mike1762 Senior Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 738 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Sunday, January 16, 2011 - 8:40 pm:    Cool... I'll be looking-out for it. A shorty is definitely my preference (unless there is a Series Balance K floating around out there). ralphl Member Username: ralphl Post Number: 64 Registered: 4-2008 Posted on Monday, January 17, 2011 - 3:33 pm:    I have a mint 1980 Series 1, koa wood, with case, cable and power unit. Gorgeous bass with killer tone. Lemme know if you are interested. uberbass Junior Username: uberbass Post Number: 17 Registered: 9-2010 Posted on Monday, January 17, 2011 - 11:44 pm:    Curious to know what your price is for this 1980, please? I happen to like Series 1 basses from this time period. mike1762 Senior Member Username: mike1762 Post Number: 739 Registered: 1-2008 Posted on Tuesday, January 18, 2011 - 3:06 am:    Nice bass Russ. However, I just sold my Standard Point for the reasons mentioned above. ralphl Member Username: ralphl Post Number: 65 Registered: 4-2008 Posted on Tuesday, January 18, 2011 - 7:57 am:    Hi Mike......yeah...guess I'm gettin' old.....
