That's exactly what I've been looking for, and I found that auction a few days ago, but two things give me bad vibes:
1. there are no strings on the bass- if you're selling a bass for over $1200, spend the $20 to put a damn set of strings on it, especially if you're a dealer, as this guy appears to be. The bass missing strings makes me wonder what's wrong with the neck and action.
2. the language later in the auction description is nonsensical cut'n'paste- so the guy has a lot of guitars that he doesn't like selling and he doesn't like low-ballers; so what? He could have taken the time he wasted on the large font rant and posted better pics and a more detailed description.
It's worth less than what he's asking, but that's forgivable with the "offer" option. I'll see how much I like my Epi, if South Chicago GC ever ships it. I bought it and a new case for it last Tuesday and it still hasn't shipped.
