Lovely

I keep coming back to this ad, and each time my jaw drops I always wanted to try the Spitfire and Rumour, heard many compliments on Bernie's craftsmanship. I've heard the neck of Spitfire is a mix of P & J neck (at least on 4 strings), but not sure I know more.
Anyway, the best bass on BC at the moment IMHO!
GLWTS!

thanks for the lovely comments.
The necks on the GB Spitfire basses really do feel comfortable. They feel like a great mix of the P & J neck profiles and feel very natural.
Bernie's workmanship really is top quality.

I am only selling this as I have a GB bass on order with bernie.





I am open to cash offers on this

Please forgive my ignorance, but what's the string spacing at the bridge on this bass and on Bernie's 5-stringers in general? Thanks in advance

Hello
Sorry for the slow reply but I have only just seen your message.


The string spacing is 19mm I believe.
