Guild DeArmond Pilot Deluxe Bass Active Humbuckers / Thru Neck / Mahogany. MiK

  

DeArmond by Guild - Deluxe Pilot 4 String Active Bass - made in Korea in 2000. This is an amazing bass, and I've owned Status and JD Supernaturals in the past. Through neck, made of maple & walnut with ebony fretboard.

Mahogany wings added to the through neck. Active electronics with twin humbuckers.

Bottom 2 pots: Treble, Middle. Not to be confused with the less desirable bolt on neck version, this one is on a par with the USA made Guild version.

Fabulous build quality and construction. Slim C profile neck, perfectly balanced with tummy tuck and forearm, ergonomically designed, not too heavy at 7.5lb so it's easy on the strap as well as the lap. Very easy to play, amazingly low action. Tone wise, it has a full palette of any tone you want.

Everything from Soul, Pop, Rock, Metal to Jazz Funk. Mike Mills from REM used one in their early days. It has a few scars from normal use - see pics, most could be toned down with some mahogany / maple stain if it bothers you. Personally I like guitars to show their history.
