Hi Mike, do you have access to any sound samples of the bass please?. The ones on the Gillet site are listed as private access only. cheers

Thanks Nik, much appreciated

Do you know the weight please Nick and are there any issues with neck diving? Cheers

What is weight please?

Thank you. His work is new to me but he is obviously an experienced player and that really shows in the little details in his designs, the pure ease of the neck playability, the upper access, the balance and his attention to the build quality...I'm talking myself into keeping this....

Sale Pending - Off to the West Country

Up for sale is my Scott Whitley SWB-1, made in Ash, passive electronics, short scale 30.5", weighing in at just 7.4lbs (super light). It is number 46 of the signature range. Comes complete with the original lightweight hard case including the key. GHS strings. 24 frets, rosewood board, twin jazz style pickups, heavy duty bridge, three way selector, one volume, one tone. I recently purchased this short scale from Shantijoe but unfortunately the scale length isn't working for me which is a real shame because it's a great bass. The weight is brilliant, it's so light and the neck has a fast low action, double octave. The slanted jazz pickups in conjunction with pots that actually work offer a great range of tones too. I'm really glad I got a chance to try the bass, very impressed. There is a Youtube video by Scott talking about this range which is worth checking out for the tones etc, link below. Condition wise, very good, some light play marks on the back when you hold it up to the light. Some light marks on the case top too. I'm based in Baldock, North Herts and collection or local-ish meet up would be preferable. When Joe sent the bass down, he covered the case in cardboard which I still have so can do the same if you would like to arrange your own courier. Many thanks

Thank you. I think this early Vintage Modified line will be favourably viewed in years to come

Thanks for checking the listing. This is my RMI Retrocat, which unfortunately is not getting used and is just living in a case, so hopefully someone can keep her being played on a regular basis. I really like the headstock design, something different and the matching body finish really works. The neck profile is thin (D) and is really really playable, fast, with easy access to the higher frets. A good range of tones from the PJ configuration and matching black hardware completes the look. It weighs in at a very comfy 8.6 lbs (3.9kgs) and balances very well on the strap. There are a few light marks on the body, some play swirls behind the upper horn and some pick marks and swirls on the pickguard, but overall, a very tidy bass, wearing new flats. I'm based in North Hertfordshire and ideally this would be collection only or a near meet up as I don't have a hard case or suitable boxes for shipping. Many thanks The spec is as follows: Crafted in Korea Thin profile neck Extended fret range with a strong, scalloped neck joint for comfortable access to the upper register Master volume with pan pot for easier tonal blending Alder body in 3-tone Sunburst finish, and 3-ply BWB pickguard Maple fingerboard 5-way reinforced bolt-on maple neck 34" scale 22 medium jumbo 2.8mm gauge frets Graphite nut width: 38mm Passive controls - Volume, balance, tone Wilkinson single coil jazz pickups Wilkinson vintage style bridge with brass saddles - 19mm string spacing Side dot markers Weight - 3.9Kg
