Alas it was a purchase I couldnt afford to make so sadly I need to let it go...

This could be your only chance to own one of these ultra rare instruments.
Originally $3300 Im looking for £1745 ([b]NOW £1600[/b]). But be quick before I change my mind and keep it!

I would also consider some trades - 35" scale for 5 stringers only

Its alot of dough I know but well worth it. Check out [url="http://www.moon-guitar.co.jp/index.html"]http://www.moon-guitar.co.jp/index.html[/url] for the prices on these - and thats for the regular models![attachment=22528:DSC06471_1043x764.jpg]

Actually no, but it is available upon request! :)

[quote name='bubinga5' post='532199' date='Jul 4 2009, 01:01 AM']I have loved this bass for a while now....Whats the pre amp like through this bass?[/quote]

I love the pre, its Moons own brand.
TomB wrote this on my TalkBass thread:

"I own this bass' sibling. Mine is identical in every respect except that it is finished in Burgundy Mist, (a '60's Fender color), and has a rosewood fingerboard. It is such a fine Fender-style instrument that I have needed no other 5-string since purchasing it. I bought it 10 or so years ago from the only former US dealer I know of: Dan Lenard, then of The Luthier's Guild in Chicagoland.

The preamp is a Blackbird, but a 3-band, unlike the 2-band drop-in Jazz Bass replacement model, also a great preamp. It adds a mid-boost/cut feature that functions much like a presence knob on an amp; goose it if you ever feel you can't be heard clearly enough, or cut for a slap-tone. It features only useable tones, and sips 9-volt power.

I have played many 5-string jazzes before and since and this instrument still tands alone. If you can manage it, buy it."
