sifi2112 Posted July 2, 2016 Posted July 2, 2016 (edited) Reluctantly putting this fab bass up FS as I'm gassing for another particular bass & not playing in drop A (or even in a band any more & can't afford to get / keep both Bought this ABZ5 new from Bassdirect a few years ago but as great as it is standard I missed a couple of things so 'modded' it a little lol ... main mod was the Nordstrand Big Singles, just love these pups, also really wanted a black finish so did it to the front & headstock / neck heel but the original blue burst finish is still on the back. Comes with Dingwall gigbag & hex keys. Edited August 2, 2016 by sifi2112

I'm practically giving mine away at a stupid price and there's been no interest. I'll be taking it down and offering it elsewhere. I like your upgrades, especially those Big Singles, but alas, I'm selling not buying right now. Good luck, don't let the price get you down - Nothing seems to be selling quickly on BC these days.
Muzz Posted July 5, 2016 Posted July 5, 2016 So what's the electronics in it at the moment? I'm not clear on that. The black finish: what's that, exactly? Is it reversible, at all? Cheers, Muzz

I'm not too bothered if this sells coz I'll p/x this for a similar price [quote name='Muzz' timestamp='1467740524' post='3085821'] So what's the electronics in it at the moment?

Cheers, Muzz [/quote]Hi Muzz, electronics are just vol pot & 4-way selector (bridge / both parallel / both series out of phase / neck) & the black is stained & tru-oiled so you could change that but not exactly reversible as the blue colour is no longer underneath.
