I can see why. These are GREAT basses.
-
This is a "pre-Nashville", but not a "pre-Gibson".
GLWTS! -
This is probably one of the most beautiful basses ever built!
-
Passive or active?

Bass is on hold.

WOW! These things are as rare as the proverbial rocking-horse dung. The only Musicman rarer than this is a Cutlass II, I think.
Good luck with the sale!

Yes, and the fact that Modulus went bankrupt earlier this year makes these even more special, I think.
Thank you. -

In which case, may I direct you to the following...?

Would be otherwise very interested in yours but I'm in the process of setting up house - one day maybe...

Ok, now I've read it at two places.
I've still seen the number 400 mentioned more times though, but I don't know which source to be considered more reliable than the other, so...
Any how, I think we can agree upon that not alot of them were made and that even fewer is still around. -

There were rumoured to be 600 Cutlass I made and 300 Cutlass II.
I'm still looking for one with low action.

Ok.
I can't confirm, nor disprove that number, but 400 is what I've read on several places and never 600.
You wouldn't be disappointed by this one, I believe. -
Great video!
Love the track! -

Do want. Cannot afford
For those not aware, this is one of the rarest, coolest basses on the planet. GLWTS!

I'd lie if I'd say that I weren't having second thoughts about this.
If I'd regret selling it, I imagine that it'd take quite a while before I'd find another one. -

This is well after Leo, not far from the eventual demise of Music Man as a company in 1984, but the basses actually got a bit better after Leo departed. Allegedly.
Relatively few of these basses were ever made, hence their rarity and high desirability. A very special bass at a very fair price .
[/quote]
Yes. I've read that only about 400 were made. -
[quote name='JazzBassfreak' timestamp='1407164548' post='2517934']
Silly question, but is this a possible Leo's input one? I'm not up to scratch on when he left MM etc so sorry if the question comes off as silly. Lovely bass!
[/quote]
I believe Leo left MM in -79, but it's a pre-EB. -

That Modulus is not from -94, since Modulus first put truss rods on their necks in -99.
I'm guessing it's made in -99 from the serial.
That should be good news, right?
