Hey Jeff, wake up! you could have twins. It even has your mute compartment mod.

Unless it is yours of course.

I think it's Jeff's.

Well, he could buy it from himself and really jack up the price to inflate the value of these...

what's this?
Looks like a nice bass at a fair price.
Lousy snipers have no chance to spoil this one shot deal.

Yes, if it were anyone else's, it would have BIN of $4000, and be shilled up to the reserve of $3500 minutes before the auction ends.
I have no problem with snipers as long as they are legit. I rarely bid until the last minute in order to keep from being shilled higher.

That one is NOT Jeff's, his Midnight Blue is his favorite and I think it would have to be pried from his cold, dead hands.

You are absolutely right .. that is not mine!!! mine is a 1990 ... that is my bass's twin ... and you are right I wouldn't sell my blue one for even $2000 or $3000 I own 13 basses and the guys in my band want me to play that one and leave the rest home ...
$1500 is a good price for that bass ...
With that jazz bass pickup in the mute cavity the hum is reduced and it has bite like active electronics ...

Hmmmm.....Ocean City, Maryland. I have a condo down there....
Let's see, do "buy it now" , call the guy and make arrangements to meet him in OC for the transaction. Oh yeah, take my wife along and tell her "Honey, let's take a long weekend at the condo in OC, just you and me for a romantic weekend"......then after we get there, "Honey, why don't I go out and get some groceries"?.....
Yeah, that should work....

Could be worth it... she'll get over it.

Couldn't help myself....just bought it. I've been waiting and waiting for my Cheyenne II 4004/5 so this should hold me over for a couple more months (I hope).
Although I like the color, I would have preferred red or black but beggars can't be choosers.

Paul
