The bass weighs 4.625 kilos with no strap. I think that is a tad over 10lbs.

A previous owner had bounced the bass at some time in the distant past causing a tiny crack to the rear of the headstock and a crack to the preamp bay, these have been professionally repaired and refinished by luthier Colin Keefe [url="http://www.keefeguitars.co.uk/index.php"]http://www.keefeguit...co.uk/index.php[/url]

Two tiny dents remains in the body near the jack plug output and is visible on close inspection, and a few really tiny marks on the neck, barely noticeable, and do not affect playing in any way - just mentioned for sake of accuracy. no buckle rash.

A couple of YouTube reviews here give you a rundown on the features and examples of how the bass sounds:

Plays beautifully - can be tried out by prior arrangement - I live in Stapleford, Nottingham, 1 mile from M1 junction 25.

I would really prefer collection, I can deliver within 15 miles locally.

I will ship to UK postal addresses if necessary, at cost.
