I am looking at switching back to four strings and am selling this to fund my new bass.

I'm based in Milton Keynes, Buckinghamshire and would prefer a buyer collection but can post this if needed.

The bass is in excellent condition, never gigged and has some light scratches on the back of the bass

The emgs give a great punchy sound and the woods and hardware are top quality for this price range





If you have any interesting four string trades, let me know or the price is £300, postage would be around £20 if needed

These sell for around £580 online, this site has the technical info:

Thanks

Scale is 35" - helps give a tighter B sound IMHO

I'd consider any four string bass of a similar value in trade, with cash adjustment either way

Is the bass still for sale, if so, what is the B string like? both tonally and for tension,
Also, any idea what the bass weighs? as I am looking for a lightweight bass because of neck & shoulder problems,
and this model has been suggested in the forum.
cheers

I can vouch that these are awesome basses for the money. Lightweight despite their mahogany body, B string is great (I have black nylons on mine and it's still nice and tight), pickups and EQ are great, hardware is great (as you would expect from schecter) and playability is great. String spacing is fairly narrow on the 5ers and the natural finish is prone to denting and scratches but overall these are [i]great[/i] and should be far more popular than they are!

[quote name='chuck_stones' post='1060644' date='Dec 16 2010, 03:12 PM']I've got a fantastic Tanglewood 4 string limited edition Baron bass which I'd be up for trading for a 35" 5 string. Any interest?[/quote]

And a MusicMan SUB 4 (currently for sale) which I'd consider trading for this.

Thanks for the interest - I sold this for the full asking price on ebay.

I regretted selling my four string model so bought the five but didn't get on with the narrow string spacing - since then I've decided to stick to four stringers.

In light of how quick this sold I'm considering moving mine on as I'm also back with four strings. If anyone's interested please let me know and make me an offer via PM. Would be interested in trades/part-ex for a small practise amp.
