  1. Excellent bass Flavius, used to be mine, it was a very clear and punchy sound. GLWYS !
  2. Hey Folks ! For sale or for trade a Jerzy Drozd Obsession Excellency 5 strings in perfect condition. Bought by Doctorbass.net with customs specs and woods. This bass has a perfect set up with low action and terrific various tones. There is a lot of growl and attack, precise like a Tobias and growly like an FBass. Here are the specifications : Body : Diagon wood wings (a type of mahogany, but lightweight), and a flamed maple tone block. Very thick AAA black poplar burl top. Neck : 3 pieces of quartersawn maple, with two ebony veneers. Bolt-on with 7 screws, assymetrical D shape. Fingerboard : Very thick (8-9mm) fingerboard, birdseye maple.

It's very lightweight so it's not exhausting at all to play with. A little sound clip with old nickel strings : https://drive.google.com/file/d/1gNVBqxuSFXwP2ZG98wJlKoJKm8MDPH7u/view I have a lot of soundclips with new steel strings if you want to hear more. Street price starts at 5000€ according to the Jerzy Drozd's website : https://www.jerzydrozdbasses.com/obsession-excellency Don't hesitate if you want more soundclips or pics. For trades I am quite opened, I am interested in fretted or fretless basses, from 4 to 6 strings. Rather looking for a Leduc, MTD, Tobias, Ken Smith, or whatever... Waiting for your proposals!!
  3. Aaaah, Flavius ... 😎 Here is a man who would make the most depressed of men smile. 😏 I just made a trade with him, and as usual everything went wonderfully! The packages are very well done and the basses arrived as described. I can only recommend Flavius who is a man of confidence, and it's always a great pleasure to chat with him. Have fun with this new bass dear friend and long live the GAS ! 😄
  4. Still here ?! 🤦 Warrior’s basses are insane, at this price it’s a total bargain ! 🤯 One of the best neck profile in the World, a bit like those of Leduc’s basses. And this flamed maple, WOW ! 😍 GLWYS Tony !

  8. For sale/For Trade a beautiful MTD 535-21 from 1995, very good shape, lightweight (3.7kg) and very rare with this woods configuration. It's a bass from second year of the MTD's production (finished in December 1995), delivered with original brown hardcase and Mike's letter. Its weight is really surprising for a 5 string and it is very balanced. The sound is filled with growl and presence, lots of low-mids and a really strong character. This is according to Tobias, the sound he had in mind when he thought about the evolution he wanted to make by launching this new brand in the early 90s. Here are specifications : Body : Korina, lightweight whith a wonderlful golden color Neck : Wenge, quartersawn, one piece, 4 screws bolt-on with asymetric profile Fingerboard : One piece of Wenge Scale : 35" Frets : 21 + 1 frets silver/nickel in perfect shape Headstock : 2 + 3 with Wenge veneer Nut : Bone Pickups : Originals MTD/Bartolini, inverted P pickups Preamp : Original MTD/Bartolini, works with two battery, +/-9v configuration Controls : Volume/Blend/Bass/Mids/Treble + Mediums frequencies switch 250/400/800 Hz Tunes : Originals Gotoh GB707 Bridge : Original Wilkinson in perfect condition Strings Spacing at Bridge : 19mm Strings Spacing at Nut : 9mm Knobs : MTD Hardware color : Black Trussrod : One working and perfect set up rod Land of Craftsmanship : Handmade in USA Weight : 3.7kg This bass is very easy to play and the weight is super nice when you are standing. The bass has a few strokes and a few marks, but nothing bad for a bass of this age. It’s an instrument that has been played and that resonates wonderfully. The sound is typical MTD, with snap and an unbeatable slap sound. The woods used really offer a very ample and imposing sound, with a very good definition and a really important presence in a mix. You can see pictures in full HD here : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/18LL6pQFNSi13FkmicCoRCf_hwKYAFCxp?usp=sharing And listen a lots of soundclips here : https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1lENbaYYXVDuhg6jlYJiZX5azU6uf8fj3?usp=sharing Don’t hesitate if you want additional photos or soundclips. For exchanges I am quite open, I am interested in fretted or fretless basses, from 4 to 6 strings. Rather looking for a Fbass, Leduc, Ken Smith, or whatever... Submit ! For information : Price new in 1995: $ 3500 + $ 300 (Wenge neck and fingerboard) + $ 300 (Korina body) + $ 140 (Hardcase) = $ 4240 or current $ 7240 with dollar inflation Current new price: $ 5,200 + $ 500 (Wenge neck and fingerboard) + $ 300 (Korina body) + $ 450 (Hardcase) = $ 6,450 3200£ is for average trade value. For straight sale, price is negociable. Bomb-proof shipping OK
