I received this bass in a partial trade, but I have no reasons to keep it because I already have the basses and the sound I need. Unfortunately, it's impossible to catch in the pictures (made with my phone) the real color of the bass. That ruby red is dark and elegant. I will make new pictures with a real photo camera, it deserves. Specs: Made in Taiwan Alder body Flame maple veneer top Maple neck Ebony fretboard (the frets are almost new) Brass bridge, 16.5 mm string spacing Yamaha alnico passive humbuckers Yamaha active preamp. Pots: Vol + Blend + Bass + Mids + Treble 5 Kilos Technical condition 10/10, aesthetically condition 8/10. The hardware and the knobs are oxidized a little bit, the lacquer on the headstock and the truss rods holes area turned a little bit white and the lacquer on the back of the neck turns green. All of this doesn't affect the sound and the playability. You can see everything in the pictures. Price: 700€ (negotiable) + shipping cost to EU countries

A friend of mine has a very similar bass. When I put that bass on, I felt like I was born with it, that it was part of me. Very balanced. I didn't feel those 5 Kilos. I had a lot of basses, but only Ken Lawrence and Mike Lull had a perfect balance like this Mayones. Also, the sound and the craftsmanship are amazing. GLWTS!

Long story short… back for sale. This time with the original preamp. Specs: - Made in Japan, 11.06.’86-‘89 (serial number 2M11 056). Regarding the manufacturing year(s), this is the information that I found on the internet. Please correct me if I’m wrong. - Sandwich body: flame maple-rosewood(?)-flame maple - Neckthru 5-piece maple-mahogany - Ebony fingerboard - Scale 33 7/8”. The B string is HUGE and very focused, piano like - String spacing at the bridge 19 mm - Piezo brass bridge - Nut width 56 mm - Bartolini G66CBJD B1/T1 pickups !!! The original pickups are in perfect technical condition and will be delivered with the bass. Due to the solderless connections, it will take 2 minutes to change them, if wanted - Weight 5.5 kg on my bathroom scale. On the internet I found that it weighs “only” 5 kg, so… I don’t know exactly. Anyway, it’s heavy (like the sound) - Original hard case The bass is in very good condition for its age, it has only few minor dings/dongs that don’t affect the playability (no damages on the back of the neck). I can make and send more pictures to the potential buyer. Price: 1800€ + shipping cost to EU countries No trades and the price is firm. Thank you!

Thank you, Tony, for the advertisement! It's true, I play in several bands, but only one plays doom. Anyway, doesn't matter too much, I use the same gear, maybe too simple for most of the purists : bass - compressor - overdive. Sometimes I put cables between them. It's enough and the sound is too good (for me) to change anything in the chain. Tony, I'm waiting for your opinion after this concert
