At almost 30 years old, this bass has seen some things, but it’s still looking sharp and sounding mean. She’s in very good condition, with only light play wear to remind you she’s actually been loved and not just a closet queen. The neck is straight as an arrow, the action is buttery smooth, and the tone? Think “earthquake in stereo.”
Comes with the original Zon hard shell case, so she’s riding first class wherever you take her. Whoever brings this baby home is going to be STOKED!
LET’S GO!!
