At least it's priced reasonably...

The previous owner was a former band member!

Lars, was he the original owner?

What do you know about the bass?

Not THE Band! I'm just reading the description.

Which band is he talking about? THE BAND as in Rick Danko?

...for $19,500 they'd better resurrect the late great Rick Danko & send him to my house with that bass!

If you read the description it says

"Custom features that the owner, a former band member, ordered from the Factory"

I just thought it sounded funny...like: most bass players are band members...right?

Oh well.........Forget it!!!!!!!

Very nice. I'm curious as to what the orange label has printed on it...

damn!

Rick Danko, I think was one of the most original bass players ever.

I think he mostly played a Gibson Ripper???

He also played an Ampeg AUB-1.
