cytania Posted January 19, 2014 Posted January 19, 2014 Bought last year from Bass Direct when my main player broke just a week before a gig. This is a 4 string Korean made bass with 3 piece hard maple neck and maple body in a glossy natural finish with a beautiful rippling maple quilt top. The neck is one of the most perfect I have ever played, superb frets and playing action but it's just a tad too big for my fussy 'Goldilocks' hands. The preamp is the TonePumpJnr with two volumes, bass and treble. 'SSD Inc' pickups. With both tones flat you have an excellent vanilla sound and pointing them at your feet brings in a ballsy zing and thump. Online retail price is £579 - £649 (or £849 if you're Gear4Music!) but I have it close to the Bass Direct price I got due to a ding in the lower bout top about the size of a fingerprint. No indentation just faint cracks in the poly. Look closely in my photos for it. [b]MY PRICE £385[/b] You are welcome to PM me and come round for a try-out. I am in South Nottinghamshire so can drive over to you if you are Nottingham, Leicester, Derby or Mansfield based. Would prefer not to use couriers and paypal.
sykilz Posted January 20, 2014 Posted January 20, 2014 Hi, what sort of size is the neck, and is the nut width on these 38 mm or 41 mm? Don't like chunky Wide necks, though my Warwick is thin and deep, wondering if this is similar? Thanks!
cytania Posted January 21, 2014 Author Posted January 21, 2014 I'm getting 40mm at the nut, maybe 39.5mm. I wouldn't say this has the typical Warwick depth, so it's pretty slim, but not Ibanez thin.
cytania Posted January 25, 2014 Author Posted January 25, 2014 Will swap for another Spear S2 4 string (like the two in my avatar!).
mastrivan Posted February 9, 2014 Posted February 9, 2014 What condition is bass? Any dents, marks? Do you have case or gigbag? [email protected]
cytania Posted February 22, 2014 Author Posted February 22, 2014 Hi Mastrivan, this bass in great condition, the finish is near perfect apart from the fingerprint sized mark on the top bout. It's close to being new as it was never my main player.
Geek99 Posted June 3, 2014 Posted June 3, 2014 Surprised this is still here, I had a grey one which had a thin neck that was nice to play
