This is how it looked with black s/p (photo from previous owner), which will come with the bass - in case you are tortphobic

Ah, you are right. I mistyped in Fender Serial Dater website. Will correct! Thank you

Bought recently for a project that requires a black bass (clue: goth) but quickly found my damaged left hand was still not up to the neck, hence replaced with JMJ Mustang. I added an after-market Musiclily tort scratchplate (for which screws are a little bit skewiff but reasonably aligned) and also has black after-market scratchplate (which was on the bass when I bought it). Weighs a bit under 9 pounds. Dates to 2002-4. New Fender 9050L flats. Fairly good condition, no major dents or dings, just some surface scratches and hazing. Only other thing to note is two holes above bridge where presumably someone once installed a Badass or other bridge but which are barely visible, what with the bass being black! Collection SW13 (south of Hammersmith Bridge) or post £20ish (at cost) on top. PS, will come with old school protective but unattractive hardcase.

Reopened with new £200 price

Well it looks like I would have to drop the best part of £1k to get this fabulous bass sold, so I am going to hang on to it and enjoy it when my left hand is fully recovered

Here's a glowing review of a Lincoln by Lobster, so you can hear what the pickups and controls do

Back up FS as I am still not using it and its too much money to be tied up in a beautiful, hand-made objet! Resigned to losing a chunk of change on this but try me with a very close offer - or p/x for s/s Serek MW or Wilcock Mullarkey/Bisonic (not the one with Stingray pickup though)

Price drop £799 plus post

Can also throw in some Roto Trubass black nylon short scale flats for a none-more-black look

if available still, please PM me with payment details. Cheers! Clarky
