VinceF Posted September 9, 2012 Share Posted September 9, 2012 (edited) [size=4][font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]Hello everybody,[/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]As written in the title, I re-put my wonderful F Bass Alain Caron 5 strings fretless for sale. It has been delivered to the first owner in 2005, I’m the second one. I nearly sold it last time, but stopped it as I was really looking to keep it. Time’s missing, 2013 will be huge for me, then I will part with this one. I’ll get another one later, that’s just not the right time for me to own it, as BN5 gets all the playing time.[/font] [b][font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]Here are the Specs :[/font][/b] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]Nut Width: 54mm (2 1/8") Width at Last Fret: 96mm (3 25/32") Fingerboard Radius: 10" - 16" Scale Length: 34.5" Number of Frets: 28 String Spacing at Bridge: 19mm (3/4") Neck Wood: 3 piece quarter-sawn maple Fingerboard Wood: Gabon Ebony (Black) Body Wood: Figured Maple/Spruce Top Tuners: Black Gotoh tuners with 20:1 ratio Bridge: Handmade Gabon Ebony Knobs: Handmade African Blackwood Pickups: RMC piezo pickups in the saddle & an F Bass stacked, single coil/hum-cancelling, magnetic pickup in the bridge position[/font] [b][font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]Pictures :[/font][/b][/size] [size=4][b][font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]Preamp :[/font][/b] [i][font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]Three upper knobs[/font][/i] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]1 : Magnetic pickup volume (Also Push/Pull Single/double coil)[/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]2 : Piezo volume (Also Push/Pull Piezo On/Off) [/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]3 : Active tone (Also Push/Pull Active/Passive mode)[/font] [i][font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]Three lower knobs[/font][/i] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]1 : Bass boost[/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]2 : Medium boost[/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]3 : Treble boost[/font] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]Condition is very good near excellent, there’s a ding on the headstock, two very small traces on the bottom of the bass you can see on the pictures, a ding on this same part and one on the fingerboard at the end (No influence on sound nor playing!). It has been played and you can see it. Sold with FBass levy's cordura gigbag.[/font] [b]SOLD!!![/b] [font=tahoma,geneva,sans-serif]If you have any questions, or looking for additional or specific pictures, please do not hesitate to PM me.
