This was one of the premier basses of the time, the first to feature active electronics at a price point that the typical musician could afford, yet high enough in quality that many of the top bass players of the time could be seen playing both on stage and in studio.

THERE IS ONE PROBLEM WITH THIS BASS...The low E tuning machine slips whenever you get the string close to being up to pitch. Since it is an enclosed tuner you are not able to repair it. It can easily be replaced with a new set of tuning machines but I thought I would let its future owner decide what those tuning machines should be. You could also watch the internet for the originals. I saw one of the tuners (Ibanez Velve Tune BII) on eBay this week but it was for the opposite side of the neck and was black chrome.
