TRADED Shuker Singlecut 5-string Buckeye Burl £1700 £1900

[RichValentine]

I have wobbled about selling this a few times but as beautiful as this bass is I am not a 5 string player and at best I'm a guitar player who dabbles in bass these days. This instrument took 18 months to finish and is truly stunning to look at, which is sadly what I'm doing most of the time now. Might be tempted by a good 4 string+cash my way. I'd quite like a Status Vintage PJ, but would also prefer the cash to fund a new acoustic.

Had one or two messages, I would accept 4 string trade offers + cash my way. Had a noodle on it again today and it is remarkably easy to play. Lowered price as well.
