Shockwave Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Hi guys. This is just a feeler for the moment as the bass is not in my hands and is subject of a trade deal. (I have permission of the current owner to post this) The neck is a 7 peice, flame maple and purpleheart with a figured birdseye maple fingerboard. The body is alder with a flamed maple / cocobolo top. The circuit is Demeter 3 band. The pickups are Bare Knuckles with a passive option. Recently a ramp has been installed (Not shown on photos). It's had a recent fret dress and setup and it plays amazingly well. Red LEDS side markers are installed. The scale length is 33". It has some minor playwear and dings. Here are some videos of another bass-chatter playing it (Through a SS crate 50 watt amp) [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jsdZrYy6gcQ[/media] [media]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vcsxF8T9150[/media] Trade-wise I am after 6 string basses (Possibly a wide spaced 5 String, but would have to be pretty special!), maybe a Gibson RD. May consider part exchanges with cash my way for things like a Musicman Stingray etc. Of course if you think I may like your bass and does not sound like anything I have described give me a shot anyway, I may like it Trade value is £1250. Bass is available to try in either Bristol or Swindon. Cheers! Rob. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4000 Posted July 12, 2012 Share Posted July 12, 2012 Not again! I'm so sad this is doing the rounds; if I had the money (or a decent trade) I'd have it back tomorrow; one of the nicest basses (IMO) I've ever owned or played. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
