1/2 Size Bass - Sold £500

[Mr Bassman]

Feeler - sell or poss trade for Roadworn Jazz, NS EUB or something nice

I bought this new Antoni a couple of weeks ago to experiment with as an alternative to an EUB, I wanted to get that acoustic sound with feedback resistance in a portable package.

Well it works, sounds great unplugged and amplified, (Daf has sent me an Ehrlund to try and it sounds fantastic!). It's an easy one hand carry and fits in the back of my car without putting the seats down. I've gigged it and received compliments on the sound.

The only issue I have with it is the slender neck, due to a left hand injury a couple of years ago it's painful to squeeze or make a fist so chunky necks are better for me. So I have a couple of options, either take off the fingerboard and fit a 6mm shim to beef up the neck, or let someone else have the benefit of an as new instrument with a new set of [url="http://www.amazon.co.uk/DAddario-Helicore-Medium-Tension-Hybrid/dp/B0006MXLUI/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1376172000&sr=8-2&keywords=helicore+double+bass+strings"]Helicore Hybrid[/url] strings (the supplied strings were awful)

These basses come with bridge down and need a set up. It was unplayable with the nut too high, which has been lowered to give a nice easy to play instrument.

Here is a pic along side my Clifton EUB for size comparison

Hi.
Still for sale?
If so, does it include the pickup?

[Mr Bassman]

Yes it's still available

Sorry, the pickup is off my other bass which I need to keep, I was just experimenting with it.
