I sold this a couple of years ago and regretted it so when the chance came up to buy it again I managed to pick it back up last year.
Fairly reluctant sale as my MIJ Yamaha TRB has not sold so I’m going to offer this up to replace funds from a recent unplanned naughty purchase.

Quite a rare beast - very Spector esque - lovely inlays in the 'board.

Great bass this is, very under rated are Farida basses, very lightweight, certainly the lightest bass I've ever had at [color=#282828][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Weight is 3.4kg or 7.5lb[/font][/color]

Set neck (so think Les Paul), Mahogony body which is very lightweight (I though Mahogony would be heavy - it's not).

Gotoh hardware, high quality parts and craftsmanship.

Nice little Farida branded hard case - a bit worn - fit's the bass like a glove.
Part of the Hypersonic range, 24-fret HB20 offers a wide range of great bass tones with active pickup configuration.

As always, any trial or inspection welcome.

Pics below, there are some better pics on the other threads linked above, quite a difficult bass to photograph:

In answer to PM questions:

Yes - shipping is possible.
Weight is 3.4kg or 7.5lb - I've put this in the original post.
Neck profile I'd describe as a slim D profile - a touch more depth than a C shape.

Maybe better described with a photo?:

I had one of these (maybe the same one). I have very fond memories of it. A beautiful, small light bass with a very big punch. GLWTS
