The neck came with the nut already crafted like that, Chris. The only guys I know doing brass nuts this way are Slawek Rybski and Ken Smith, but it looks more like Rybski's work.

Almost everything you need to know is in the ad. 😉 And as @CJPJ noticed, it's a Fender Hi-Mass IV, in brass. 🙂

Non-smoking environment as usual. The bass has been fully shielded with copper and set up professionally, which means it's super easy to play and dead silent. It has received a brand new battery and is fitted with a brand new set of DR Strings Pure Blues PB-45 quantum nickel strings (45 - 65 - 85 - 105), which really serve this bass. What you see is what you get ! Look carefully at the photos taken from different angles and lights to see the real condition, which is very good except for the 5 "dings" photographed. Due to severe back problems (67% officially disabled because of it) plus right shoulder injury (non-operable capsulitis from which, after more than 4 years, I will never fully recover), I'm selling all my basses over 4 kilos and also the ones I'm not really using as well as some stuff I don't use. I've also considerably lowered the price for a quick sale. Don't hesitate to ask for more.

Just in case, here is a video explaining the differences between a TL-5 first and second generation (the TL-6 shares the same pickups and bridge on both generations). Worth watching.

Superb looking Sei Flamboyant fretless bass. I blame myself all the time, don't worry, Ben. 🤔😂🤦🏻‍♂️😉

Check diodes D27 and D28 as I don't know (from just looking at the photo of the short cut) if you put the +61V or -61V to earth with your probe when touching the resistor (not the MOSFET) leg and the ground. Check that resistor too. 😉 SVT III Schemo.pdf

And Paul is a great guy to deal with!

Or there was a huge discount on knobs...

I guess it's a 4 bands EQ with the mandatory coil splitting switch.
