SOLD- ACG Recurve S Type Singlecut Unlined Fretless 5 £950

[franzbassist]

I need to clear some space for a new ACG I have incoming, so I am putting this lovely singlecut Recurve up for sale.





I bought this bass from GBBL last summer. It's served me very well in the time I've had it. It's a "Standard" configuration bass, so no fancy top or filter preamp, but it's beautifully put together, light weight, and sounds great.



Link to the bass on the ACG site is [url="http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/0189ss-recurve-s-type-fretless-5/"]here[/url], but it's basically:[list]
[*]tinted white limba body
[*]ash/bubinga 34" scale neck
[*]ebony board
[*]2x ACG FB humbuckers
[*]ACG/East Custom P-Retro - stack 1 = volume, passive tone, and push/pull 'bright' function whereas stack 2 = dual boost control (turn CW for mid boost and ACW for bass & treble boost) and a push/pull 'deep' boost.
[*]4 way Rotary switch (neck, neck+bridge series, neck+ bridge parallel, bridge).
[*]Active/Passive Switch
[*]Dunlop buttons (but not the part that attaches to the strap)
[/list]








Weight is 8.5lbs and balance is good. There's a bit of a short fundamental around the 5th fret on the G string, not a dead spot as such, but other than that it sings and is in immaculate condition. It's currently wearing La Bella white nylons, which suit the bass well.

Here's a video. It's a quick and simple job, the playing is sloppy and I didn't have the mic gain set right so there's some distortion in places, but hopefully it'll help folk see what the bass can do

Thanks for looking

Hard to believe this is still here. I've a couple of bites on 3 local sales over the weekend, if just one of them pans out I'll be on this like a fat kid on a cake!
