Seller doesn't mention the non original pickup upgrade. I wonder if they're EY guitar pickups from HongKong or USA made humbuckers.

BTW: Czechoslovakia split up in two countries back in 1993.
BaCH is located in Czech Republic.

That is my bass that was on Craigslist in Ft Collins and in the classified here in May of 2018. Same one I got from FrankieTbird a few years back. It never was posted on www.shoppok.com so I have no idea where that ad came from but that is my pic. It would be very strange that the bass is back in Greeley CO. It sold in June on Ebay and I shipped it to a guy that is in NJ if I remember right.

I went to the search function on that site, typed in Bach, and it shows that the listing was posted 1 year ago. Someone must have reposted your CL ad and never taken it down. Possibly a scammer?

A guy in Belgium is selling his BaCHbird from the second series.
All original except for the removed logo on the headstock.

Not sure what you mean Scott? It isn't reliced at all.

Haha, that would be a day job!
No actually people still keep me posted when they sell theirs. Or when they see one for sale.

Boy, if that one pops up again I may have to snag it. Love the color.
