SETUP & INSPECTED BY OUR TECH TEAM

All of our guitars come with a FREE professional setup to a comfortable action as specified by that instrument’s manufacturer. Our setups always include inspection of (and necessary adjustment to): action, intonation, tremolo angle, truss rod, frets, nut, bridge, and more. We can accommodate special setup requests - additional charges and/or shipping delays of 1-2 business days could occur.

INDIVIDUALLY PHOTOGRAPHED

After 15 years of innovation in our photography process, Ish Guitars has developed a way to get you the most accurate true-to-life color of every instrument we sell. We never embellish, oversaturate, or misrepresent our images, so that your buying experience can be as much like visiting our showroom as possible. Keep in mind that various computer screens can show colors a bit differently, so the color on your screen may not match the real thing perfectly no matter how hard we try. Also, unless otherwise noted, we individually list and photo every piece of gear that comes through our doors.

Weight: 9.4lbs

Case Details: Original Ritter Hardcase

Cosmetic Condition: Very good condition.  There are a few areas around the neckpocket/fretboard joint that were filled at one point prior to us receiving the bass as well as a few other various scratches on the body.  Some finish chipping along the edge of the fretboard is present as well.  

Tech Notes: Guitar, Hardware, and Electronics were cleaned/tested and are functioning appropriately. When we first received the bass there was a lift at the end of the neck/extension. This required a full neck pocket shim to adjust the neck angle, as well as fret leveling/re-crowning past the 12th fret. There were a couple chip outs around the neck pocket as well when we received the instrument that we filled (see attached photos). Fretboard was cleaned and frets polished with plenty of life left. Setup with minimal neck relief and medium/low action. Plays great throughout the entire neck with consistent playability/intonation. There is very light fret buzz past fret 17 due to the nature of maintaining the correct neck with consideration for the lift at the neck pocket. 

Mods or Repairs: Neck shim and chip out fill required. See above in tech notes.
