dougal Posted August 19, 2013 Share Posted August 19, 2013 (edited) [color=#ff0000][size=5][font=comic sans ms,cursive]*** CHANGE OF HEART *** WITHDRAWN *** NOT FOR SALE **** EX-PARROT ***[/font][/size][/color] Up for grabs is my ACG j-type. Alder body with 3 piece Maple neck and Rosewood finger board ([color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]24 frets)[/font][/color] [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Weight is 3.6kg (just shy of 8 lbs) [/font][/color]. SB single coil pickups with a U -Retro pre-amp. Grunge black finish. ACG made it with chrome hardware, but before he shipped it, I got him to replace everything with black hardware and put on a d-tuner: the original look can be seen [url="http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/0099-j-type-4-string/"]here[/url]. It's in immaculate condition. Came to be direct from ACG: I think that it was used as a trade show demo bass. It's been gigged but the finish hasn't got any dings or scratches that I can see. Comes with a padded case. Trades wise I'd be interested in something similar but different. If you have a thumb or a new-ish precision that might pique my interest. Cash sale is preferred and I can haggle a bit on price. I'm selling because I bought an Xotic Precision, and this is sitting around, unused and unloved. Well, not unloved, but it's too nice to not be being played. It's easy to play, hangs nicely, and I think it looks great. Buyer pays postage. Bass can be experienced in Egham, or brought to central London (with a bit of foreplanning). Edited September 19, 2013 by dougal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ead Posted August 21, 2013 Share Posted August 21, 2013 Very nice indeed, it'll be a cracker like all ACGs and great value for a handmade instrument. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dougal Posted September 3, 2013 Author Share Posted September 3, 2013 Bump. Too expensive? Way of the world at the moment? I don't think this is over-priced, but I may be valuing it too highly. Please feel free to offer up trades - I'm very polite at saying 'no'. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thunderbird Posted September 3, 2013 Share Posted September 3, 2013 For gods sake some one buy this I keep looking at it and it is torturing me I don't usually look at stuff I cant afford but this is such a good looking bass in fact I think it is the best looking bass I have ever seen, please some one buy it and put me out of my misery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
