Custom-made Tele style P-bass NOW SOLD

[The Bass Doc]

Selling for a mate who commissioned this about 3 years ago but now only ever plays an active Jazz.

The neck is Allparts but re-profiled to be slightly less 'clubby'. Swamp ash body made by me - slab front but 'belly' contour back. Butterscotch finish.
Standard EMG P pickup, rear mounted Gotoh battery box. Vintage style bridge with threaded saddles. Fender reverse-turning tuners.

Hard to spot on a pic but there is a very slight dink at the tip of the headstock - usual result of belting a drummer's head to keep him in time.

Looking for £375 collected or plus £20.00 for posting.

Trades?

Not that I think he needs another bass - but no harm in offering?

A 'Just back from holiday' BUMP.

This has got to be the best quote/sales pitch this year so far!

Nice one Bass Doc and good luck with the sale of this one.

It's still here, but it should be there.

Bump with price reduction.

I want this!! but sooo skint!

So frustrating that every time I see a telebass neck, it boasts about being slim. I want massive. I'm going to have to order another Wishbass.

The neck profile started off similar to a 70s Precision and was dressed away at the 'shoulders' to give the feel of a slimmer neck without losing any 'front to back' strength (if that makes any sense). It retains the standard 42mm width at the nut.

The weight comes in at around 5K according to fairly dodgy bathroom scales.

NOW SOLD. Thanks to those who took an interest.

(I could always build another one ).
