I'm looking to move on my Elrick NJS 5, I love this bass but realistically don't play enough 5 string to keep this amount money wrapped up in it.
This is NOT one of the new Korean built Cort NJS’s, this is one of the European (Czech) built Elricks, setup by Rob in Chicago, so extremely well built, with US Bartolini Pickips and Preamp, as well as the following:
Features:
- 35″ scale
- 24 frets + zero fret
- 9.1 Lbs.
- Gloss Piano Black Finish
- 3-piece Quarter-Sawn Maple Neck
Ebony Fretboard
- 2-way adjustable truss rod
- Bartolini Jazz pickups (Made in the USA)
- Bartolini 3-band pre-amp w/2-way mid and active bypass (Made in the USA)
- Fully shielded control cavity
- Black Elrick Hipshot Ultra-light tuners
- Black Finish Elrick bridge – by Hipshot (Made in the USA)
- Dunlop Dual Design strap buttons (Straplok compatible!) (Made in the USA)
- Currently strung with La Bella RX Steels 45-130. I think I have a couple of spare sets too.
- Original Elrick hard case
The bass is in excellent condition, with only a tiny little nick in the finish on the top edge of the body, see the very last photo.
While cash is king, I am potentially up for trades or part-ex's along the following lines, all 4 string and no heavier than 9lbs. I could potentially add a little money for the right bass:
- Spector Euro P/J
- 70's Precision
- Lakland Dual J, 44-60 or HB-30
- Zon Sonus
- De Gier Soulmate
- Fender Japan Jazz (not sunburst)
£1550 pickup/meet up preferred as I don’t currently have the means to post.
You can hear one of its slightly more livelier tones on this track:
Cheers
