For sale : 1990 Washburn / Status S1000, red / black with custom case. I would say this bass is in excellent condition overall ; there are a couple of minor pocks on the back that I have tried to photograph. These basses were built by Washburn under a partnership with Status-Graphite UK. Status hardware and electronics were incorporated and the same layered construction was used, but without the incorporation of the carbon graphite. Instead Washburn used a composite material for the fretboard. Pickups and active Electronics were sourced from Status-Graphite UK, and are identical to those use on stock basses at that time. At the time, they were promoted by a certain Mr Mark King amongst others. Everything works including the truss rod, which in combination with the lockable bridge saddles, allows a nice super - low action to be set. The Status hardware is clever, rock solid and well engineered - well done Status ! As you would expect, it has all the slap / pop stuff off to a tee, but what really surprised me about this bass is the richness & detail from the pickups, in particular the front pickup is deep and beautifully clear - so not just a one-trick pony. Although as far as I understand it, the active tone control is a treble boost, this complements the pickups very nicely. Finally on full volume, it is the loudest bass I have owned. The bass comes with a robust, correct size custom quality hard case and recent new strings. Shipping at buyers cost or pickup from South Gloucestershire.

This bass was completed on 5th June 2008 and is one of limited run of 50 in a 4 string configuration, one of which is held in the Alembic Archives in Santa Rosa. Point of interest: Alembic suffered a slight administrative error and 'accidentally' produced two Spyder 4 basses bearing identical series numbers. The serial numbers are different though and both instruments are separated by the Atlantic. This bass is not either of the two in question. I'm not fully up to date with this bit of info, but as of about 7 years ago, there were only six Spyder 4's left available for commission. It may well be less than six now, but at least one must still be available as the Spyder Ltd Ed model is still featured on their price list as of August 2021. The current list price (which does not include VAT or import charges) is $24,900. This bass is in excellent condition and comes complete with its OHSC, certificate and tool pack. The case is really large and quite heavy - it's more like a guitar safe than a case. For this reason, combined with the rarity of the bass itself, I wouldn't be comfortable shipping it. I would however consider delivering it personally to any prospective buyer for fuel costs. This clearly means that this a UK sale unless someone wants to travel to the UK to collect it. The specification for this bass is: Spyder 4 Limited Edition 1 of 50 (technically 1 of 51 as detailed above) Top Wood: Flame Maple Back Wood: Flame Maple Body Wood: Walnut Neck Wood: Maple with Purpleheart Stringers Fingerboard: Ebony Inlays: Mother of Pearl Ovals Body Finish: Clear Gloss Neck Finish: Satin Electronics: Anniversary Electronics with pick-up selector on lower horn Machine Heads: Gold Custom Features: Red side LED's, Elongated Peg-Head and Sterling Silver spider web inlays on body Weight: 12.4lbs Nut Width: 45.4mm The bass takes 4 x PP9's to power the active circuitry and the LED's. The strings that are on it are almost new (there is a spare used set of XL strings in the case). The neck relief is set ridiculously low and it takes it very well indeed. For anyone not used to Alembics, the control system takes a bit of getting used to, but I'll include a photo of what the knobs and switches do to make it a bit clearer.

This is my ACG (AC Guitars) Finn SC R Type five string, commissioned by me in July 2015 with Alan Cringean, build completed in April 2016. It has a 33” scale, 24 frets and currently strung for E-C tuning. It has an Indian ebony fingerboard, 5 piece Maple, Wenge neck, wenge top on a black walnut body with 0.6mm maple accent. Front of headstock is matching wenge and rear of headstock matches the black walnut of the body. Extremely low action with flat fingerboard radius. Active circuitry with two FB humbuckers in matching enclosure/ramp with ACG DFM 4k pre-amp (I’ve added a picture which explains this). Weight on my bathroom scales was 9lbs and 5oz (or approx 4.2kg). To build this new on the Custom spec calculator on the ACG website, it seems it would be around £3,150. No trade offers please. Happy to meet up locally within a reasonable distance of Durham/Newcastle area too. Any questions, just ask! https://www.acguitars.co.uk/project/0244-finn-r-type-5/

unfortunately I need to raise some money so unfortunately this must go. It’s an amazing bass, plays and sounds beautiful and has one of the best necks I’ve played on a bass. has a small mark on the front of the body as you can see in the pics Comes with a generic hard case and the original black pick guard. All parts are original stock NOW SOLD

I had this up for sale recently then took it down and now it's back up again! I have eyes on something else and that's what's driving me otherwise this would be a keeper. Never seem to have quite enough money for my habit. Anyway - here's my beautiful Duesenberg Starplayer bass complete with its original hard case in excellent condition. Meticulously-constructed and full of little details like the Art Deco tuners. I bought it because I was after an orange bass, a short scale (it uses medium scale strings because of the tailpiece) and a semi-hollow bass. This covers all of those! Not prepared to ship (unless you want to arrange a courier and insurance) but collection from near Belper which is centrally located and only 15 minutes from Junction 28 of the M1. Also prepared to negotiate a meet up if necessary.
