Marco TFL5. Handmade Bass with killer pickups. Includes Access Hardshell Case. Here are the specs that were given to me when I purchased the bass-

Ash body
Maple Neck
Quilted Maple Fingerboard (possibly roasted? Either way it is a darker shade than the neck)
Abalone Dot Inlays
Luminlay side markers
34.5" Scale
9.5" Radius
Passive Single Coil "J" pickups, 70's Spacing
No Preamp or battery box
10.3 lbs
Hipshot A Bridge
Adjustable 17-18.5mm Bridge string spacing
Hipshot Ultralight Tuners
Strap pins compatible with Dunlop Strap locks
Black Hardware
Black painted Headstock
Access Hardshell Case & Compact UV Light (For the luminlay side dots) Included
Currently strung with DR Pure Blues 40-120

The neck is a full "C" shape, hand carved and feels very comfortable. The pickups sound great and have a more modern voice to my ears. Some people say they sound active despite being a completely passive bass. There are a few dings on the headstock and a scrape on the back of the body. Other than that just a few small dings and light scratches here and there since this bass has been gigged. Nothing major and still in great shape overall. There are a few finish anomalies here and there as well. As I understand it these basses are completely hand made, and Marco mixes and applies the finish himself.

Please reach out if you have any questions.

Thanks for looking!
