Bartozzi Posted March 3, 2014 Share Posted March 3, 2014 (edited) [size=6][b]THIS BASS IS SOLD!![/b][/size] [color=#333333][size=3]I'm selling one of the greatest basses I've ever owned - the mighty Alain Caron signature 5-string fretless by F-Bass. [/size][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3][size=3]The bass had been made in 2000, and a couple of details have changed in the design since then - so they don't make them like that anymore [/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3][size=3]The neck is smooth and fast, you can achieve great Jaco tones from the magnetic pickup, as well as upright-like warmth from the incredible RMC piezo seated in the all-ebony bridge. [/size] [size=3]Originally, the bass was passive - I've ordered the ORIGINAL PREAMP from F-bass and had it installed, the knobs don't match but I didn't care that much - it's the TONE I was after [/size] [size=3]Yes, it has some scratches - It toured extensively with me between 2007 and 2010. I've rarely played it since then, and it's time for this beauty to find a new home [/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3][size=3]Comes with the original, soft gigbag by Levi's, made for F-Bass in that time period.[/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3][size=3]The spec of the bass are here: [/size][url="http://www.fbass.com/models/model/ac"][font=Verdana][size=2]http://www.fbass.com/models/model/ac[/size][/font][/url][/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3][size=3]Here's an example of section playing: [/size][size=2][color=#026CB1][font=Verdana, Arial, sans-serif][url="http://youtu.be/YsZWu3c_duU?t=1m"]http://youtu.be/YsZWu3c_duU?t=1m[/url][/font][/color][/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3][font=Verdana][size=2][b]A new one lists at approx. [/b][/size][/font][color=#5A5A5A][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif][size=4][b]£4400[/b][/size][/font][/color][font=Verdana][size=2][b] ... so my price is quite a bargain.[/b][/size][/font][/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3][size=3]The bass ships from Warsaw, Poland. I use insured DHL only and pack the bass so it won't get damaged at all.[/size][/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3]They don't appear in the aftermarket too often, so this is a rare occasion to get one.[/size][/font][/color] [color=#333333][font=Arial, sans-serif, Verdana][size=3][size=3]Message me or call me at +48-790023001 if you're interested, we'll talk about the details.[/size][/size][/font][/color] Edited March 1, 2015 by Bartozzi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

molan Posted March 5, 2014 Share Posted March 5, 2014 These AC Sig basses are spectacular. Possibly the best fretless I've ever had the pleasure to play. They really are over £4K new now and hardly ever come up on the used market so this is a great deal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Treyhr Posted March 15, 2014 Share Posted March 15, 2014 a free bump from me. Guys, deal with confidence. Bartozzi is an outstanding bass player, and really knows a thing or two about F-basses... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hStEIb_j4tg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
