AndyTravis Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 (edited) So... The day that never comes. This Nate Mendel is a lightweight vintage thud machine. Aguilar P60 pickup, parchment pearl pick guard, covers, tug bar... Badass is gone, replaced with a fender bridge reduced the weight even more - its stupidly light. Cover has foam mutes. Original pickup/pickguard/bridge are gone. No case. Thomastik flats, plenty of life left in them. Plays great, sounds great and handily weighs 7.5lbs with the covers on. £15 shipped in U.K. I reserve the right to not do this if the bass I'm ogling for my 2 bass stable... Better pictures to follow. https://instagram.com/p/BTVq7J3D-WE/ Edited May 16, 2017 by AndyTravis
timhiggins Posted April 26, 2017 Posted April 26, 2017 That's a very attractive weight for my back 😊 how does the aguillar p.u. compare to original ?

[/quote] Smoother, much more refined. Took a chance on the recommendation Here are s an old video of me playing the bass (badly) when a friend asked what I thought of the pickup https://youtu.be/co7DQ-8qdfY
AndyTravis Posted April 27, 2017 Author Posted April 27, 2017 [quote name='timhiggins' timestamp='1493312687' post='3287425'] Trades ? [/quote] Nope, stripping right back - the jazz in this pic to blame https://instagram.com/p/BQszNAijCBa/
timhiggins Posted April 27, 2017 Posted April 27, 2017 Fair play ..funny enough the cream/tort looks just like the pj I was going to offer up 😊 ...enjoy
4000 Posted April 27, 2017 Posted April 27, 2017 Very tempting Andy, although I'm desperately trying to save for another Sei. GLWTS. Andy is a top bloke BTW, just in case anyone didn't already know.

AndyTravis Posted May 12, 2017 Author Posted May 12, 2017 Deal fell through. May be going to Lee Muir, just need to sort the finer details.
