"What Blemish??"

I was in the market and I've seen these all over new for $300, but zzounds had a "factory blemish" listed for $177 with free shipping. Couldn't pass up taking a chance. Had it at my door in 2 days. I scoured this bass looking for a "blemish", but it was flawless visually. The only things wrong were that the lock nut on one of the volume knobs was loose (so the pot was a little wiggly). and the lock nuts on the tops of a couple of the tuning pegs were a little loose (made them rattle a bit). A quick couple of turns with a wrench and everything is perfect. Sounds great too, lots of punch. Very happy customer.

This Bass was worth every penny. It came out of the box ready to play. After a few minutes i had the sound i was looking for. This bass simply screams. I am running a Peavey Deltabass head and almost had it completely cranked to get it to keep up with the other members of the band. Now with this bass i have turned down almost 90%.
