Volume Posted June 8, 2016 Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) It pains me to do this, but... up for very reluctant sale is my gorgeous Zon 5. A versatile, gorgeous-sounding instrument - crystal clear, crisp... but also capable of really thuddy, thick low end... an absolutely stunning bass, and one which I'm sure to regret selling - however, I need a maple-boarded 4-string for my current project... ideally something like a Limelight P or J... [attachment=221031:Zon (1).JPG] It's not an old bass... it has been treated very carefully, and with a lot of love. It comes with a Zon softcase - and it will be packed super-securely for shipping - or, if you're local to Nottingham, by all means drop-in and pick it up. [attachment=221032:Zon (2).JPG] [attachment=221033:Zon (3).JPG] It's so new that I haven't even removed the plastic coverings from the battery compartment on the back! There isn't a mark on this bass - you'd have to look very hard indeed to tell that it's not brand new.
