If you're looking for a unique bass that offers all the playability of a short-scale while retaining the 'presence', balance and substantial feel of a 34" standard, then this is for you. That, plus a unique pup/control set-up that allows rapid switching between a wide range of tones, is why I couldn't wait to get one as soon as I heard about them. The custom-shop design and colour are obviously a subjective thing, but personally I love the way it looks too (sorry, only group pic available but I'll take some more).

Here's the spec: Scale length - 30"; Construction - maple body / neck; Fretboard - 9.5"-radius rosewood with 21 medium jumbo frets; Width at nut: 42mm; PUPs - 3 x Seymour Duncan 'lipstick-tube' Strats; Controls - volume, tone, 5-position Strat-type switch with push/pull knob enabling 7 pick-up combinations.

Condition (including hard case) is mint/as new with no sign of wear as this bass hasn't been played much.

So why would anybody want to sell what is probably the best bass they have ever owned? Only because they have a dodgy shoulder for which 9 1/2lbs is about a kilo too much nowadays - and I'm really pissed off about it.

Price is collected / delivered within a reasonable distance from Taunton.

I hope this link turns 2 people on: one to buy my Rascal, and the other to buy Scott's (preferably in that order :D ).

OK, £50 price drop to £545. You guys don't know what you're missing - as Scott Whitley says in the demo vid I've linked above, this is the best 'off the peg' s-s bass out there. If it weren't for my shoulder injury, it's the last thing I'd be selling!

Love the look of this bass (sadly, I already have too many, or I'd be quite tempted)
Just wondering what the sound and sound controls / options are like - in that this bass has 3 pickups?

Sorry to hear of your shoulder woes
