Have you had the bass completely overhauled or just minor repairs? Used pro
models are expensive, almost as much as new ones. I had my student model
completely rebuilt and it plays fine. Even with the repair, there is the
occasional tweak, such as adjusting a screw or two. E-mail me privately if you
want the phone number of a good repair tech.
