Price just lowered, see update below.
Fender USA.
2012 model.
Rare.
Limited edition and no longer being produced.
Almost $1000 less than Reverb (see update below).
Only two of these currently on Reverb, cheapest is $2500 + shipping, the other is $4000.
A very high-end bass for a crazy low price, due to a finish flaw (see update below).
Great value.
It's rare, has all high-end finish and components, but now priced similarly to a new American Professional.
The next level up from this guitar is the Custom Shop, which requires parting with quite a bit more money.
Pics do not do this color or finish justice, it has vertical and horizontal flaming in the top.
Has some features normally only found in the Custom Shop.
Sale includes original tweed G&G Select hard case.
UPDATE : Guitar is in excellent condition, except the bottom edge.
I pulled it out recently to send more pics to someone interested, and discovered a spot on the bottom edge (see last pic).
I never play it due to it being rare, so the most likely explanation I can come up with is that it got this spot from being stored vertically in the case (look at the pic of it in the case, the guitar rests right on this edge).
You can only see it if you look at the bottom edge, no effect on tone or playability.
It's a bummer, but the price reflects this new development.
Looking for cash, so no trades please.
