I would do it. Not as a money maker but just for the pleasure of improving an already decent instrument.
I've just completed a Squier P bass upgrade and really enjoyed doing it. To me it was absolutely worth doing and has made what was a playable but dull instrument in to something very pleasing to play and a pleasure to look at.

Gary mac - PM me your address and I'll pass it on when I've finished with it.[/quote]
PM'd.
Sorry for the delay in doing so
Have to agree with Jack and infact that's the route I'm planning on at the moment, once I've got clearance from the good wife.
But if you are talking about the American Standard in Coda then I understand your enthusiasm. The one I tried in there a while back was a beaut and had me all gassed up.
I've not tried low riders but I'm a recent convert to High Beams and won't be changing brands anytime soon.
Will be interested to hear what you think of the Low Riders
Lovely.
But 13 - 15 lbs might be worth getting it weighed properly, as I'm sure that would put buyers off even though it looks so good.
Good luck with the sale though and apologies if you think I'm an interfeering git.

Not trying to be argumentative but wouldn't that be a fake then?
