jay-syncro Posted September 19, 2017 Share Posted September 19, 2017 (edited) I'm selling this beautiful instrument as I have too many basses and not enough time to play them. It's an extremely well designed, impeccably constructed powerhouse of a bass that can do it all. Spec. 33'' scale One piece lightweight Swamp Ash body One piece Wenge neck Ebony Fingerboard with Luminlay markers Ebony control knobs Figured English Walnut pickguard and headstock inlay Dual Coil Nordstrand pickups with a switch for each to switch between single coil, series and parallel modes High quality passive circuit Hipshot USA tuners Hipshot A bridge Wenge control compartment cover held in place with magnets 😎 Lightweight Just serviced by Alpher Instruments I've gigged it a lot so it does show some signs of use, but it is in great overall condition. I recommend coming to try this bass out to fully appreciate it, as the tonal options are vast and it's a joy to play.

A world class bass for less than a new Fender. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
