They just dropped the price. Hmm, wonder how fast I could sell my P-Bass.

That’s not how the GAS thread works.

You’re supposed to buy first and sell second. :grinning::+1:

Remember who it’s all about - Me

For an end-state pinnacle upgrade of my SBV-550, it was either this or the SBV-J2. And while the two-fisted double-P action of the J2 would be cool, really this is much more of what I wanted.

Less competition for the double P now, lololol.

Beautiful bass.

New on the market. A Fender Vintera Bass VI. Looks like it has the AVRI Tremelo stock
Comes with .025-.095 - I don’t think you would have to upgrade a thing. Which for the cost, you shouldn’t

Tempting - instead of

Only 880 euro!

Yeah if this is in as good of condition as it appears, this is the top of the SBV upgrade path. This is one you can’t trade up from; a keeper for sure. Even if there are issues, with this one, you fix them.
