It looks pretty good but in a few pictures the action looks REAL high. Maybe a teak of the rods etc would fix that.

Nice color.

Sean, it is Burgundy, alot of people don't know the RIC names for the finishes. I've see "sunburst glow" instead of fireglo, several times on ebay! LOL
It looks sweet, but the price is much too high.

Well I have a guy that can fix just about anything up for me. Any adjustments and setup things he can do. And he knows all the insides as well.
Price... I dont know. I mean i was looking for a good one around 1k if possible. But... it doesnt seem likely. And 1.5k is really what im seeing on most of these. Which is the price of a new one after all... But hmm i dont know. Ill have my teacher look at it and see what he thinks as well.
Speaking of my teacher. He showed me the recet from his ric when he 1st got it back in the 70s. 550 bucks... I was like you ________ fill in the blank. He said that back in the day they had a ton of them where he worked... but no one really every bought them. And they were all cheap as far as money goes. Figured id get into them whenever the price jumps up haha.

Very nice looking bass(es) this guy has.
His prices are high, but his photography is really good. That should help his cause some!
