TheGreek Posted September 10, 2014 Posted September 10, 2014 (edited) [size=5][b]Price reduction - now £[s]450[/s][/b][/size][s] ono[/s] - [b]£425[/b] Bought from a friend who acquired it here: [url="http://basschat.co.uk/topic/110211-traded-zoot-iceni/page__p__2060119__hl__iceni%20zoot__fromsearch__1#entry2060119"]http://basschat.co.u..._1#entry2060119[/url] As part of the culling process this too has to go. Really nice bass, light (about 8LBs) and really well balanced. I'm sure that Iceni owners will agree that these are really under-rated. I contacted Mike Walsh who told me that this is actually the prototype for those that came afterwards. Originally had a Graphite neck though this was sold prior to it being sold to the original owner. Bass is active - controls are vol/vol and tone. Happy to courier - normally around £20 - hard case included. The nut is brass adjustable but TBH probably needs replacing. Like this: [url="http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/ABM-6240-Adjustable-Brass-Bass-Nut-/181658728434?pt=LH_DefaultDomain_0&hash=item2a4bb437f2"]http://www.ebay.co.u...=item2a4bb437f2[/url] At one time I think the P/ups were wired in series/parallel - there's a switch fitted but does nothing - I contacted Mike Walsh to see if he'd put it back to original - too busy with Purple Chilli cabs unfortunately - the bass still works fine. Really needs a new home where it's going to get more use than it gets here.
