This is an ARIA fretless bass with a built-in preamp, making it an acoustic-electric bass. The preamp features volume, EQ, a tuner, and a notch filter for convenience. Included is the original soft case. Regarding the saddle, I had it custom-made at a repair shop to achieve my preferred low string height balance. The original saddle is also included, so please replace it if you have any concerns. I have confirmed that it produces sound, but since it has been stored for many years, I recommend that you adjust the fine settings yourself or have it checked by a repair shop. I have priced it accordingly. Please rest assured that there are no preamp malfunctions or significant neck twists. As this is a used item, there may be some cosmetic scratches, so please understand. It will be shipped in the included soft case, wrapped in bubble wrap, and packed in a cardboard box. Please understand the above points. Returns are not accepted, so please purchase with this in mind. We may decline transactions with those who are slow with payment/receipt confirmation or who make unreasonable price negotiations. It is also listed elsewhere, so please forgive us if it sells out.
