Paul S Posted November 4, 2011 Posted November 4, 2011 Could you please tell me this weighs over 9lbs and has a 40mm or wider neck? Please? Just to completely remove temptation.

Please? Just to completely remove temptation. [/quote] Lol I don't know the weight exactly but it's not heavy at all so I guess it's under 9 lbs. I will find out. The neck isn't wide at all, so sorry
tom1946 Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 Are these really as good as a Gibson SG? Similar money for used. Looks Outstanding!
Paul S Posted December 20, 2011 Posted December 20, 2011 It is stunning. Did you manage to find out the weight and neck width? For those of us to whom it matters - 'not very heavy' and 'not very wide' are not very informative! Or, alternatively, where are you and/or the bass?

But i'll guarantee that its built better than the SG's (even the US ones) and sounds much richer. I havent ever seen another one of these other than mine ([url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/10581-is-my-esp-worthy-of-being-considered-bass-porn/page__st__20__p__849540__hl__esp%20viper__fromsearch__1#entry849540"]http://basschat.co.uk/topic/10581-is-my-esp-worthy-of-being-considered-bass-porn/page__st__20__p__849540__hl__esp%20viper__fromsearch__1#entry849540[/url]) at gigs, on the tv or even on the net! And at that price its a real steal! I waited 6 months for mine to be built for me in Japan and it cost me arount £1500 i think...
Gilian24 Posted January 10, 2012 Author Posted January 10, 2012 Bump! Low price for a beautiful bass! Note: The weight of the bass is about 4kg, which ins about 8.81 lbs. The width from the nut is 40 and the last fret 63. The thickness from 1st fret is 21,5 and 12th fret 24,5.
Gilian24 Posted January 13, 2012 Author Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) I'm based in the netherlands but I try to sell it abroad because in the netherlands they only buy fenders and musicmans. Edited January 13, 2012 by Gilian24

[/quote] Yes it's a very good bass but Í'm more of a 5 string type of bassist so I need some cash to finance a 5 string bass.
