That one is actually pretty. I never thought I would say that about a 2030.

I recognize that bass, it was at Action Music in College Park, MD. I fiddled around with it for a while, it needed a slight tweak of the truss rods (action a little high). I didn't pull the trigger on it because I'm saving up for a BlueBurst 4003. Plus, it wasn't a bad bass at all, the 2000 series basses just don't do much for me.

Ahhh that is a nice one ... I won't be bidding on it ... it is clean and it has the single coil pickups ... they have nice necks ... a little slimmer and more tapered like a 70's jazz bass ... it has 2 truss rods and a schaller bridge so a setup will be easy ... I usually turn mine into 5 string basses and the neck holds up fine ...

I should get a vineyard and call it "The Grapes of Rath" ...

I was thinking of getting a 2030 natural and giving it an oil finish ...
