Michael Kelly Dragonfly Acoustic Fretless 5 string Smokeburst NOW SOLD £250

[4000]

Hi,

Up for sale is my Michael Kelly Dragonfly fretless 5. Bought this a while back when I was casually looking for an acoustic bass; hadn't planned on either a 5 or a fretless but it sounded and played so good - I a/b-d it with an Overwater Perception fretless 5 and much preferred this - that I bought it on the spot. Sadly as I don't really get on with 5s anymore (didn't at the time!) I recently replaced it with a brand new Warwick Alien Deluxe 4, although I have to say this is lighter, slightly louder acoustically and has more mwah (I'm currently having some issues with the Warwick too due to ongoing shoulder and nerve problems, neither of which I'd taken into account when thinking about acoustic basses, so that may also be up for sale in the near future). Never been gigged, only rehearsed once, and in pretty much as new condition. Any marks on the pictures are simply dust or reflections.

Colour is smokeburst, pre is a Fishman Presys + , and the neck is apparently carbon-fibre reinforced; see attached links. I do know it plays amazingly, with the lowest action of any acoustic bass I've ever played, and the sound is big and punchy. I'll throw in a Stagg STB10 AB-XL gig bag which cost me £30. Looking for £250 (check out the RRP!) but open to sensible offers.

For obvious reasons would prefer pickup; I don't have a box big enough for this and even if I did obviously shipping would be a bit risky. I may also be putting this in a friend's music shop on sale or return so please bear in mind it could sell there.
