eubassix Posted September 16, 2010 Share Posted September 16, 2010 (edited) Looking to trim the Collection and complete/clear some projects ... it's getting out-of-hand (again) and need to make room for something(s) new (details to follow in the Porn section, if things work-out).... Modulus VJ4 bass (USA) with upgrade (and very high quality) Quilt maple top and Bartolini pickups/2EQ. Fiished in a very tasty caramel-translucent. Neck (composite - it's a Modulus) has a truss rod but has never needed adjustment. Looks and feels like a Jazz (c. 9.5 lbs) but with a much greater spectrum of sound(s). Excellent for slap / M.King stuff but can also be(come) much more mellow. Bass itself is in excellent condition (few, minor/superficial marks - nothing obvious or serious) and plays just as good as it looks. There is one small finish chip on the neck between frets 4-5. Original case - one corner has been damaged/repaired, but is pretty strong/sound. SOLD(traded) Edited November 2, 2010 by eubassix Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exile252 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 Too many Modulus basses, they look too good for their own good, why can't I be richer!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris2112 Posted September 26, 2010 Share Posted September 26, 2010 It would look so smart with black hardware! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris2112 Posted September 28, 2010 Share Posted September 28, 2010 I'm sure Modulus will be able to provide the parts, they're only spares! They must have a few sitting around! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No experience with Modulus (... anybody else?...) but doubt if they'll want to provide the tuners (and bridge - if it's theirs) FOC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
