Includes DS-5 power supply and 5 pin cable. Shipping will be free in the USA via FedEx home delivery. 2 choices on case: It has an old anvil case I bought it in, but if you don’t want something so big and bulky, I will buy a brand new mono case bass gig bag to ship it in at no cost to you (300.00 value). It’s up to you.
Issues. Mainly overall finish checking, as is seen on most of these old basses, unless they’ve been refinished. It was my plan to refinish this at Alembic later this year, as I wanted to see the purpleheart in all its glory. It turns brownish over time and under yellowed lacquer.
Regardless, the bass is fully functional, and plays and sounds GREAT! Neck is comfortable and straight.
There is a spot on the back where it looks like someone started to try to drill for a new strap pin, but can’t tell if they went any further than the surface, I don’t think so. Has no effect structurally. The bass is rock solid.
I replaced an incorrect knob with the proper Alembic pointer knob for pickup selection. The four knobs are original.
There is a hip shot tuner on the E string. I thought I would replace it but it’s actually pretty cool, and works well to drop it to a low D, so I just kept it.
That’s all I can think of.
