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...

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.

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.

[b]The bass weighs 4.3kg (I was asked by PM, but may as well make it public knowledge)

It has a relatively thin neck for a five... plays beautifully... amazing tone, very easy to play

I've seen a four string that I'm interested in - so the Zon is now £600 to those who can collect from Nottingham...

I will arrange shipping at buyer's expense as well... PM me to organise

Hi Rich,
I'm interested in the Zon if you still have it. Could you possibly find out cost to courier to Exeter, Devon.
Many thanks,
Nick
