angosmyth Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 This is a custom made kamil greben elbow 5 string bass. It is one of a kind. Was custom made for a guy called Andy majernik in 1999. The bass is in excellent condition and has to be seen. The pictures don't do it justice. It is a thru neck bass. This bass cost €3000 new. It has a double truss rodd on the neck. The action is excellent. Really easy to play. I don't really want to sell it but I have another custom made bass on the way. Asking for £650. Case included. http://www.kamilgreben.sk
alembic1989 Posted August 27, 2014 Posted August 27, 2014 Hi, What's the scale length, and string spacing at the bridge? What kind of music would you say it excels at? Are those humbuckers....if so can the coils be split? Thanks.
angosmyth Posted August 27, 2014 Author Posted August 27, 2014 Hi. The String spacing is 2.325cm .The scale length is 34". It really has an all round sound. The eq is very good on it. The pickups are electrosonic sbs. Thanks

Thanks [/quote] Are you sure about the string spacing?..what I meant was the distance between each string at the bridge..its usually between 16-19mm
angosmyth Posted August 27, 2014 Author Posted August 27, 2014 Sorry I was doing it wrong. The distance between each string at the bridge is 18cm
angosmyth Posted August 27, 2014 Author Posted August 27, 2014 18mm from centre of one string to the centre of the next string on the bridge
TWILITEZONE Posted August 28, 2014 Posted August 28, 2014 an accurate way is to measure between the outer string centres and then divide this by the no of spaces, ie the no of strings-1.
