I had one like this, except it was considered custom shop. This looks to be almost the exact same bass.Price was fair (to me anyway)

Congrats Marc! The '57 RI is the jewel of the P-bass line.

Brought it to my first rehearsal today. Man, did it cut through the mix. So much so, that my guitarist just called me to say he was "hypnotized" by the sound and he can't get it out of his head.
Wondering out loud if they sell the pickup separately. I'd like to put it in my Mex 50's P-bass. Would probably sound just as good.

Thanks! I had seen that but wasn't sure if it was the stock 57 reissue one. I guess it is.
