FS : Gibson SG Bass with Darkstar pickups
£700


Recommended Posts

Hi,



I am selling this unique bass, based on a 2012 Gibson SG Faded Bass (made in USA), modified by the french luthier Roger Daguet.



I have made him change the original pickups by his own "Dagstar" pickups, a faithful handmade reproduction of the originals Hagstrom Bisonic pickups that Fred Hammon had already reproduced for the Darkstar pickups.



More informations and sound about these pickups on this page :

The structure of the magnets in these pickups are truly unique, resulting in a very dynamic sound, natural and warm and with lots of clarity.



The neck pickup is an humbucker and the bridge one is a single coil, resulting in differents sounds, that you can mix with the controls (two volume and a tone).



The electronic has also been changed, with quality pots and wire. Finally, I asked Roger to make a bone nut instead of the original plastic one. I still have the original pickups, pots, wire and nut.


Then the bass has been entirely set-up with new strings (D'addario nickel roundwound).



The final result is outstanding, this is definitely not the same bass ! The sound of these pickups is incredible. I sell this one only because I have ordered a bass from Roger Daguet with the exact same pickups !



The bass is in Paris, France, it comes with the original Gibson hard case, and I can ship it in Europe with tracking and insurance.



Here is my feedback :

The bass is still available.

@Cosmo Valdemar : Darkstars were a reproduction of the originals Hagstrom Bisonic pickups, as are the Dagstars of Roger Daguet. He began making these pickups because Darkstars were not available anymore.

I am aware of this, but you have advertised your bass as having Darkstars, which it doesn't. It has Dagstars which have no connection to Fred Hammon's Darkstars.
I just think you should alter the title as it's misleading as it is.
