I probably paid too much... but they rarely pop up. It's a little beat, but I have plans for it.

Seller sold it to me for 15% off asking.

I've needed a P-J style bass in the herd... plus I've always wanted one of these or a Musician. Might eventually make it fretless... unless I order the G&L L2000 Fretless in December.

Good luck. I was looking at that earlier. Just looking though.

Now find some cream pickup covers and SureGrip knobs and return that thing to its former glory! :)

Congrats.

Awesome basses! You'll love it!
I would recommend that you find, maybe a right handed neck
for the fretless conversion. Leave the stock neck alone, just in
case you want to go back. There are so few lefties out there!
