A very nice bass but extremely sad circumstances for the poor seller
 
P.S. The cheapest Epic I have ever seen for sale in the Uk was around $1500! You lucky folks in the US certainly get all the good prices! Surely a club member will snap this up.

Think this is the same bass being flipped for $1000 profit?

It certainly would appear to be! Once the pics are posted all will become clear as the top was quite distinctive.
 
If this is the same bass the price has went from the sublime to the (almost) ridiculous..certainly not a bargain!

Pics are up and the BIN was lowered to $1699.
Is it the same bass?

I believe so.  Especially as both were offered from California.
