miles'tone Posted June 29, 2014 Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) Italia Rimini hollowbody bass, bought by me off a fellow basschatter in March and has only left my house to have a pro set up. Sounds fantastic, is very easy to play and weighs only 7.3 lbs. It's condition is superb. Comes with a brand new light set of GHS Precision Flats which on this bass are just the cherry I'm only selling as I have my eye on a really nice 5 string and, as I'm not in a band at present, I only really use this bass to play along with The Stone Roses debut album every now and then (perfect tone for it) * edit -Collection from the Cardiff area or £185 posted. Cheers, Simon. Edited July 12, 2014 by miles'tone
miles'tone Posted June 29, 2014 Author Posted June 29, 2014 (edited) [quote name='alyctes' timestamp='1404063189' post='2488913'] Is the neck C-ish like the Mondial Classics? [/quote] I have no idea sorry but it's very comfortable to play. Not too wide or too slim, front to back is nice too. Not a baseball bat nor cramp up thin. They got it just right in my book. Sorry I can't be more exact, hope that helps! Edited June 29, 2014 by miles'tone
miles'tone Posted June 29, 2014 Author Posted June 29, 2014 [quote name='deaver' timestamp='1404067464' post='2488963'] Very tempting. What's the scale length? [/quote] 34" full scale, 22 frets.
Snarf Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Hi, maybe this is a daft question, but how does it sound when it's played acoustically? Does it have much volume to it?

Does it have much volume to it? [/quote] Not a daft question at all Yes it is relatively loud when played acoustically, has a really nice tone when played unplugged too. It's a lot louder than a solid body bass but of course not as loud as a true acoustic. It's great for practicing acoustically with an mp3 player with speakers for instance.
Snarf Posted July 8, 2014 Posted July 8, 2014 Awesome, that's what I was hoping to hear! I'm very tempted, the only swaying factor will be my impending MOT... If my car wins, I'll have the funds!!
