That price is a steal!!

[Basvarken]

It's one from the final series with the armcut. But without the volute.

At that price I'm surprised it's still there after two days. Maybe L.A. area bassists just aren't familiar enough with BaCH.

Action looks really high in the photos...

It's up on ebay now:

Yes, it does...

[gweimer]

And the price, plus shipping, makes this not such a good deal, especially considering the action.

[Dave W]

I thought from the Craigslist pics that it could just be the camera angle but it does look way too high in the third pic from the eBay auction.

[Basvarken]

Haha and if you lower the action would it raise the price then?

  I have found there is plenty of adjustment in the Bachs. I'd bet you can get the action nice and low.

I've wanted one of these BaCH's for a while, but I'm in the middle of a sell-off right now - trying to help fund my son's studio/recording gear, so this will have to wait.

I asked the seller about the action and remaining adjustment at the bridge (or if the camera angle just made the action look high).
He said the action is fairly low to normal and the neck is straight. He also said that there is enough adjustment in the bridge to lay the strings flat on the frets.

Hope someone here grabs it and it's a good one.

I've always been reluctant to sell these BaCHbirds of the last series with those silly armcuts.
I hated it when they came up with the "improvement". It just doesn't belong to a NR Tbird.
