Hi all

Reluctant sale, but a couple of my basses have to go...

This is a Marleaux Consat special edition made for Spanish dealer Doctorbass. It is essentially a bolt-on Consat Custom, but without top wood, and with a rosewood fretboard instead of ebony, all of which helps make it more affordable, but with the same quality, tone and finesse of a Custom: pickups, electronics, hardware, neck...

This is the lightest bass I've ever owned, weighs next to nothing. Punchy, articulate and modern tone with *absolutely* silent 3-band preamp, active/passive switch. No difference in volume between passive and active modes, unless you really crank the active eq up. The bass is finished in 'antique brown' which I personally find beautiful. It feels very compact, with a slim body and fast neck - top notch build quality. It is in MINT condition - no dings, scratches, nothing. Exactly as new.

Shipping with UPS included in the price, will also include the excellent, original Marleaux 'soft rigid' case.

I really loved the concept of this bass - a Consat Custom that you are not afraid to take out of the house!

I'm after an(other) ACG so trade possibilities are very limited, but asking does no harm.

Thanks!

Up it goes. Cash price 1400£, won't go any lower for an immaculate condition, incredibly light weight and resonant bass. Just addicted to ACG necks now, otherwise it will be a keeper for sure.

Bump fellow basschatters. This is an amazing bass by all accounts - if you like Sandberg, Human Base, Warwick - it doesn't get any better. I will consider trades for modern jazz-type of basses.

Final cash price is 1300 GBP.
