jaydentaku Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 is that a disk of ebony on the back of the neck, just below the headstock? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lettsguitars Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 (edited) Wenge. It was added to make the headstock volute slightly longer. I have the other cover for the humbucker too if that will help with the sale. We just agreed it looked cooler without it. Pickups are I.M.P which are no longer available. Plays and sounds great. The active/passive switch is inside the cavity as Lou never used it. It can easily be placed on the top of the bass though with a 6mm drill bit.

White Cloud Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Oh my word, this very close to what I would want out of a Letts bass (I'm saving for a custom build)....I am so tempted but probably need to show restraint. Beautiful bass. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giblett123 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Great basses, if I wasn't dodging the post Xmas Barclaycard I'd snap it up, worth every penny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
loushort Posted January 27, 2013 Author Share Posted January 27, 2013 Also a good point is that once you buy a Letts bass you are not only getting home a great instrument you also have the back up and service from the man who built it *Just adding that this bass had a full service from Mr Letts back in November* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
