reggieboomboom Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 (edited) trade value £1000 I cant quite believe I am doing this but here is my acg finn custom sc, it is number 0037. it has taken me 2 weeks to do this ad, as I have a change of heart half way through typing! It is without doubt the finest bass have ever played and held. [url="http://www.acguitars.co.uk/acg_admin/wordpress/portfolio/0037-finn-sc-classic-4-string/"]http://www.acguitars...assic-4-string/[/url] It doesn't mention on there that it also has a d'tuner fitted. I do have the standard tuner aswell. I bought the bass from drew at the Manchester bass lounge, it comes with its fitted hiscox case. The bass is in superb condition and has no marks to speak of. It sits in the hiscox case all the time. Hardly ever seems to drop out of tune. The reason this is up for a very apprehensive trade or sale is that I have started playing japan covers and I am addicted to mick karn. there is something in his playing style that I cant get enough of! I usually play tool tracks, and this bass can really growl. It is very versatile. So Im really looking to trade with a fretless acg, or similar style custom fretless. I would consider 2 basses in exchange or I can add cash for the right bass. im not a fan of fenders though. I am based in surrey 5 minutes from the m25 junction 8, happy for viewings or meeting up for a jam. Please feel free to ask, but please no silly offers, as nearly everyone on here will agree that alans basses are some of the best basses In the world at the moment. And yes I have toyed with the idea of asking him to defret it, but he may swear at me and it wouldn't be right to change this amazing sounding bass.

ead Posted April 2, 2014 Share Posted April 2, 2014 I saw this bass at the MBL and had a quick noodle; very lovely. I'm afraid my fretless ACGs are not for sale, but there is on on the ACG website which is absolutely gorgeous - had a quick noodel at the recent Moffat bash. The pics don't do it justice at all. Maybe be worth a chat with Alan, don't know if he does part exs though?
