[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]******FULL PICS DOWN THE THREAD, MANY THANKS TO GREENEKING FOR HELPING WITH THE UPLOAD :) *****[/font][/color]

[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Reluctantly up for sale is this fantastic ACG bass custom made by Alan Cringean. It has an active AC PB Humbucker and an AC RFB Humbucker, with a 3k EQ01 preamp filter with two low pass filters, which are the double stacked control knobs. You can read more about the pickups and electronics here:[/font][/color]

[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The bass also has a switch which selects between series/single/parallel for the pickup coils, giving a truly wide range of tones, its really everything you want in a bass.[/font][/color]

[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]The neck also contains luminlay inlays which can glow blue, and the body wood is white limba. This bass packs serious sound and I am gutted to be selling it. Basschat knows more than most communities how good these are, you honestly get 10 basses for one, I'm so gutted to put this up for sale. Hiscox case included[/font][/color]


[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]You are welcome to try it out. I go to University in Birmingham, but I can drop home to Hertfordshire one day if its closer[/font][/color]


[color=#141823][font=helvetica, arial, sans-serif]Thanks[/font][/color]

A lovely looking bass. Knowing Alan's work I also know how well balanced and playable it will be.

Wenge board too, Mmmmm....

Here goes, although some of yours are now visible:

















And I hope I Alan doesn't mind me linking to his site of remarkable instruments:

Thank you so much Peter! yep, its an amazing bass, lovely to play and you can get just about any tone you can think of, this is a real bargain!!

Very cool looking bass, Taran, though I'm not surprised given it used to belong to Peter..

This is an amazing amount of bass for the money, especially with the very 'Wal like' preamp/eq.

Thanks Nik! I am the original owner, Peter just helped me to upload the pics :)

I can confirm it is indeed an amazing bass! So much variety in the tone, and its great to play too

Wow. What a lovely looking bass. The lower horn reminds me of the BC Rich Mockingbird, something I've always had GAS for.

I would love to take it off your hands buddy, but AC has just started a custom build for me. These are great to play and yours is very pretty but the spectacular thing about ACGs is the tonal range. Before commissioning mine I tried a few and was quite dumbfounded by the way they sound. Someone's gonna snap this up soon and they'll be delighted with it. Sorry you've found yourself in a situation where you have to let it go, can't be an easy choice to make!

not to worry Luke. You're right they're fantastic! The range is second to none, what ACG have you gone for then? Hope you enjoy it when it arrives!

Yeah its a shame I have to sell! Very hard choice indeed! Hopefully there's a faint hope I can keep it but we'll see!

Taran
