ambient Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 (edited) A series 1 model. The much sought after, and quite rare these days series 1 John Patitucci model in excellent condition. These are one of the best, if not the best 6 string basses you can buy. Much better than the beast that is the series 2 model, a lot more player friendly with the 34" scale. She will be 22 years old in June. There are a couple of very minor marks, commensurate with her age, but absolutely nothing whatsoever that affects playability, or detracts from her overall beauty. Everyone who sees this bass comments on the amazing beauty of the instrument. The action is incredibly low. She was fully set-up and serviced by a local technician when I acquired her last year. The service included the installation of a new recessed jack socket. Everything is standard and works as it should. I'm commended on my sound on every gig that I do. I'm selling to purchase a 7 string that's for sale. Collection or meet up/drop off is preferred, but will ship if absolutely necessary.

binky_bass Posted February 5, 2017 Share Posted February 5, 2017 This was my old bass and it is a hell of an instrument. Plays superbly if I remember right! Buyers will not be disappointed! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ambient Posted February 8, 2017 Author Share Posted February 8, 2017 I've had a couple of trade offers. Please note that I am not at all interested in either 4 or 5 string basses. The only bass I could possibly be interested in would be a 7 string. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
