Hi this bass is put together from various parts from different basses. The body is Bubinga, from a high end Ibanez Soundgear bass from the 90's, not sure the exact model, but equivelent or better than the current prestige stuff. The body is very heavy. THere is a big crack in the body as you can see in the pictures, but it doesn't effect the playabitlity or sound. There is also a big hole where the old jack used to be. The neck is from a Soundgear SR800, and the frets have been carefully removed. No additional work has been done to the fretboard, and none is necessary if you use flatwound strings, which are on it now. If you use roundwound it's advisable to coat the fingerboard with epoxy or something similar. Super slim fast neck. The entire back of the neck is silky smooth and black, with no chips. The headstock is very dinged though, see pics. Awesome snarling tone thanks to the EMG pickups, which are just volume volume tone........ no eq included but they are the real deal EMG P/J ACTIVE PICKUPS.
I have a few beat up but decent hardshell cases and I'll include one if you want it, or a gig bag if you prefer.
NO RESERVE!!!
