The 38" scale hasn't been an issue as I have paws like a gorilla!

I've had it tuned a few different ways! Currently it's E one octave below the usual E up to Eb. I've had it F# up to F with Circle K strings and C# to C.I originally had it B to Bb! but finding a rig to reproduce the 15hz B was interesting! I now use Euphonic Audio VL cabs with rubber surround 10" bass drivers and they're fine even down to C#!

it's 19mm at the bridge and pretty much the same as my Jazz bass at the nut. It's currently in the loft so accurate nut with can only be given when I have courage to go up there!

Reported to be the first 7 string Chris built this bass is awesome. 35" scale. 19mm bridge spacing. Pretty much the whole bass is gorgeous flamed maple, even the cores of the wings. The neck is 7 piece and the body wings are 5 piece. The fingerboard look like rosewood. This bass would be well over £3,500 new. There are a couple of dings on the bass but nothing serious. I had the bass serviced by Phil Hartley last summer including a fret dress and restring with Circle K round wound strings. It's currently tuned C-F#. It comes with a Hiscocks hard case. The tone is amazingly clear and it's really easy to play.

Well spotted. I think its just worn off! I hadn't noticed, that's how much I used it! Plugged the iamp800 in and that was it.

I'm open to sensible offers.
