Nice score Paulo! Let us know your thoughts and review when you get time...
I haven't played much with it but it's a lot of fun!
The back has some marks and scratches, the case is mint in the inside but a little beat up on the outside, it doesn't bother me.
As soon as it arrived I gave it a full clean up and replaced the rusty strings and added a Hipshot 3 point bridge to it.
The neck pickup sounds a lot lower than the bridge pickup, I can barely hear it, so I took it to a pro and he said the pickup is no good...
I called Gibson and they told me to buy the allparts replacement but that covers the older basses, mine has 2 blades inside so I'm thinking on getting a Dimarzio Model One DP120 for it and it should sound a lot better than the stock pickup.
Overall, well worth it!
