mrbassman_de Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) SOLD Specs: 3Tone Sunburst Nitro Finish 34 scale 19 mm spacing Original Alleva electronics (active 3-Bd) Original Alleva Pickups Original Alleva Bent Plate Bridge (Alleva/Hipshot B as a spare part available - pics are shown with the Hipshot, Bent Plate bridge on last pic) Weight: 4.3kg Birth year: 2011 Played and therefore some minor, very small dings/dongs over the body. Some playing wear on the scratchplate, 2-3 scratches on the lower side of the body (where it lays on the leg when sitting). Otherwise in excellent condition. The board has a nice flame pattern - see pics. The Nitro finish is so thin that it is unbelievable how Jimmy could buff it to high gloss without going through to bare wood. Excellent ! The sound is as close to pre-CBS Fenders as it gets with modern basses - but with 5 strings . This is the top of the line model from Jimmy and hard to find in EU. Comes with ProTec gigbag. Trade value [size=5][color=#FF0000][b]3.300 GBP.[/b][/color][/size] Serious cash offers welcome, but no low ballers please. It is not that I have to get rid of it. The bass is excellent - just looking for something different as I already own another LG5 - I would really like to have a RA5 (I know that's a long shot). Trades considered (cash either way tbd): Preferred option: Alleva Coppolo RA5 or LM5 Deluxe (not too heavy) Other options: F Bass AC6 with Lines Fender pre-CBS Fodera (no NYC. no Standard) Absolutely no other models or brands please !

mrbassman_de Posted October 14, 2013 Author Share Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Thanks Clarky - yes it is - take a look at the board - never seen such a flame pattern... Edited October 14, 2013 by mrbassman_de Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clarky Posted October 14, 2013 Share Posted October 14, 2013 I owned the 4string version of this bass (with rare dalbergia negra board) and it was an absolute delight with an amazingly flexible preamp. Only sold it as I was obsessed about getting a year of birth Fender. Good job for my bank account that I don't play 5'ers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
