Hey guys,

Bought here back in December, this bass sounds absolutely terrific.
Sadly, I'm selling it because I have an EGC coming my way and can't afford to keep both.

I'll copy-paste the previous owner's decription because it's spot-on:

[indent=1][color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]" The DiMarzio pickup (hence DMZ) combines with two mini toggles to give an astounding number of tonal options, from Precision to Stingray (I kid you not).[/font][/color]

[color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Given this is 35 years old, it it in phenomenal shape and comes with a new luxury gig bag. Like Concorde, there will be no more aluminium-necked basses, so get yourself a piece of history that's cool-looking, not too expensive and above all playable."[/font][/color][/indent]

Selling it for the exact same price.

It sounds exactly like this :

I'm based in Belgium but will be happy to send it (I have experience in packing instruments and never got any issue).

Cheers,
Amo

This may be a DMZ4000 - the pickup surround does not appear on the DMZ4001. I have a 4001 and it tends to be my bass to go. Clarity of the notes combined with no dead spots is outstanding. The DiMarzio pickup is one of the best P pickups I have encountered. Tuning stability is excellent and I have not suffered any issues with temperature changes on stage. Bump for what is an increasing rarity - unlikely to be made again.

Where in Belgium ?

Brussels !

For the ones concerned about the weight, it's really not that bad. It weighed at 4,7 kilos on my bathroom scales.

Thanks 3below for the bump !

If you guys have questions, I answer way faster if you PM me.

He played an aluminium neck Travis Bean. I passed on buying a Kramer back in the early 80s and wish I hadn't. GLWTS.

Will your EGC not have an aluminium neck?

Looks awesome, wish I could afford it :)

As written, I took the previous owner's description. Should have taken that out, you're right.
Of course my EGC will have one, it will be full aluminium :)
