BaggyMan Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 (edited) Pains me to sell but hey ho lets go. 5 string bass with Black impregnated quilt Maple cap over Black limba body Maple fingerboard. Current running as passive (using ACG original parts), comes with the EAST UNI pre-amp. One hell of a classy looking bass. (in current format, hole for the swicth on the pre-amp is bunged). Demo of this very bass on YOUTUBE if you want up close and personal Edited May 13, 2016 by BaggyMan
franzbassist Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 I'm guessing it's this one? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nEmESOsn5yQ
Kev Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 (edited) Correct me if I'm wrong, but Uber is the top end range and Graft is the entry level range; which one is yours?? Apologies if I have got my names mixed up! Edited May 13, 2016 by Kev

Apologies if I have got my names mixed up! [/quote] Alan likes to mix up his naming once in a while. E.g. there is no "graft" range any more, just "standard", but towards the end of the graft run he did a few "uber grafts"... Not sure what the spec was on these, but his pages are very informative on all of the basses he has made in recent times.

BaggyMan Posted May 13, 2016 Author Posted May 13, 2016 Yes that's the you tube link walbassist. Its the actual bass, not a 'similar' one. Not me playing btw (i wish!) I have always know it as as a Uber graft 5. Graft is the style, i think Uber is the extra nice cap and that. Not a total ACG expert but sounds right. This is one of the 2014 basses made for the bass show lin london. Nonetheless at £1000 a good price for a handmade. Most ACG are double that for starters new. Photo's I struggle with that on here always seem to crash my limit somehow, will try and attach some more
TheGreek Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 Historians will one day puzzle over why anybody ever sold their ACGs....
skelf Posted May 13, 2016 Posted May 13, 2016 The Uber Graft was the top of the range in the Graft Series and as pointed out the whole Series was discontinued and replaced with the Standard Series.
BaggyMan Posted May 19, 2016 Author Posted May 19, 2016 Will consider interesting trades... Mayonnes, lakland for example.
