Purchased a while ago for a specific project which has now fallen through so not really needed any more. Really nice acoustic with a relatively slim neck which really helps if you don't like some of the big 'clubby' necks that a lot of acoustics have. It's in immaculate condition and comes with a Warwick fitted gig bag. Here's the official blurb: The Alien fills the gap between the double bass and the electric bass. It provides a wealth of new opportunities for expression and adds an extra dimension to the musician's domain. Unusual styling in the convenient cutaway, the off-center asymmetric soundhole, add to the uniqueness of the overall shape and warm tones of this acoustic model. The top and body are both laminated for increased durability in stage use. Equipped with the Fishman PrefixTM Plus acoustic guitar system, it provides a variable notch filter, shelving bass & treble, semi-parametric contour and brilliance controls for precise tone shaping. There is also a phase reversal switch and low battery indicator. Even without amplification, the basic character is evident; a growling tone across the instrument's full range with a big bottom. Product Features Acoustic Bass, set neck Only available as 4-string Laminated Spruce top, bottom and sides made of laminated Ovangkol Mahogany neck Rosewood fingerboard Scale length: 32" (medium scale) 24 frets Fishman PrefixTM Plus Acoustic Guitar System (incl. Preamp and Acoustic Matrix Pickup) Natural Satin Finish Warwick tuners Ebony bridge, metal tailpiece Chrome hardware Warwick security locks Just-A-Nut III Weight*: 2,8 kg Currently residing at BassGear in Harrogate if anyone wants to try it out Not really looking for trades on this one. This version seems to be selling at around £1,250 and the Bass centre have an ex-demo at £1,000 so I thought £800 was a decent saving on something that looks like new. High quality pics from Phil at BassGear that hopefully show this:

May be going to Greece, maybe not kinda bump

Seriously thinking of pulling this one back into the fold now that I've moved a few other basses around but thought I'd give it another little try here just in case there's any interest

Keep thinking this one has gone but seems to have gone quiet again so thought I'd remind people of just how nice it is

All possible trades have fallen through on this one so a quick bump to say it's still available

Shameless Sunday lunchtime bump

[quote name='ceritas' post='1086121' date='Jan 11 2011, 09:34 PM']Hi I'm interested for an exchange - fender jazz bass 78, black, rosewood in original shape. Everything is original on this bass. It is without a case. If you are interested please send me an e mail on [email protected]. thank you Cera[/quote] Already have a '78 in the house I'm afraid

Can't beat a Monarch Sure you don't want an NYC Sadowsky or maybe a nice Alleva Coppolo

Sold a while ago I'm afraid.

Apologies for slow responses from my end - I've been locked out of BC all day! All my Macs, iPhone and multiple browsers just coming up with 'not allowed access' messages. Just managed to log in on my old BlackBerry It's possible this bass may be sold - I got a possible straight buyer towards the end of last week but not confirmed yet. I'll update ASAP (assuming I can get back in!).

That fretboard is stunning

That's another nice bass Andy - I had a vaguely similar 5'er for a while and really liked it. Looks like immaculate condition too

Thought this one was sold but back up for sale again
