Platypus Posted March 16, 2008 Share Posted March 16, 2008 (edited) Shuker 6 String Elite thru neck bass for sale. I bought this bass from Basschat moderator Dood last year and I’m selling as I’m not getting to play it as much as I would like. The bass is excellent condition and has just been setup by the Gallery in London last week. Spec as follows: 34" scale and 18mm spacing NECK 7 piece wenge/maple slim laminate 'neck through' with a Rio rosewood (medium) fretted board. The neck features easy to see side markers. The wings are a 3 piece laminate featuring matched slices of wenge faced with a layer of maple and a top of Buckeye Burl. If you look closely, you can see the maple as a single stripe around the edges, underneath the Burl facings. Matched covers made from the same buckeye. The headstock features the same 'sandwich' layers, front and back to match the body. HARDWARE Gotoh Black hardware. Individual MonoRail bridge pieces The nut is a 2 piece brass / plastic layer for added strength. This bass stays in tune and sustains for days. Schaller strap lock buttons are fitted. ELECTRONICS two Seymour Duncan ASB Active Soapbars fed into a EMG 18 volt 3 band preamp. (bass / Mid & Sweep / Treble / Pan / Master Volume) with added switchable gain control Here are some soundclips from a similar spec from the Shuker site: scroll down to the fifth bass (TN Elite 6) [url="http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/sound.htm"]http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/sound.htm[/url] And another picture of this very bass from the Shuker Gallery: [url="http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/tngal.htm"]http://www.shukerguitars.co.uk/tngal.htm[/url] Bass comes with flght case.
