[size=4][b]Lodestone Primal Artist 4 String bass in Lodestone gig bag.[/b][/size]
[b]Mint condition in Trans Maple Flame £550 [/b]



This is my current main bass and is that good it outlived 3 Shukers an ACG an Overwater Progress Deluxe and a Musicman Bongo -no mean feat !
It looks absolutely gorgeous and plays like a dream with a set of La Bella Deep Talkin' on it.

I'm not really playing at all at the moment so I'm selling to fund bike addiction.

website blurb.

Contoured for comfort, yet making a definitive style statement,
the Lodestone Primal Artist Bass combines traditional and modern materials
to steer bass development into an exciting new era.
Carefully selected tone woods are used in construction – alder for the body,
Indian rosewood for the fingerboard and hard rock maple for the slim,
narrow and smooth neck, which features a 2-way adjustable truss rod.

The contoured body design enables funk players unprecedented access beneath
the strings for dramatic pulls, while the body cutaways combine with a sculpted
neck joint to provide easy access to every fret.


EMG Hyperactive pickups are used in a classic J configuration,
and are amplified by Lodestone high-output, low noise active circuit,
with controls provided for volume (x2), bass and treble.

These are nearly £1200 new so in this condition is an absolute bargain.

I may be completely dim/blind but I can't see a price anywhere... which makes it hard to judge how much of a bargain it is and I'm afraid it also conflicts the forum rules. :)

If it's any where near as good as a T-bass that is in no way a bad thing. Ask any owner! The only issue I see is that this is more expensive than a second hand trace and a little less traditional looking.

Well, as an owner of a T-bass, I'd agree :) Looks like this Lodestone could potentially bring the same quality and tone perhaps..?
