LZD56 Posted November 21, 2017 Share Posted November 21, 2017 (edited) **SOLD** Reducing my collection, so no trades thanks. This is a gorgeous instrument and deserves to be played regularly. Rob Allen Mouse 30 fretless short-scale (30") 4-string, built in 2014 and in absolutely immaculate, like-new condition. Swamp Ash two-piece body with Eastern Walnut top. Birdseye Maple neck with Goncalo Alves fingerboard and bridge. Supplied with reinforced Rob Allen soft-case from new. Fitted with Labella 760N black nylon wrap flats. From the Rob Allen website: - The Mouse 30 packs all the fun of a short scale bass into a full professional quality instrument. The lower string tension provided by the short scale has several benefits - easy playability, sweet upper register tones and fat blooming low end, not to mention the added nuance that comes naturally when playing this type of bass. The piezo pickup (mounted under the saddle in the bridge) is a vibration sensor that lets the wood speak, creating a cross between an upright and an electric bass. 30" scale 1 5/8" nut 23/32" string spacing at bridge fully shielded body cavity body finish - polyurethane modified oil neck finish - nitrocellulose lacquer single volume control integrated in bridge Fishman preamp & piezo pickup La Bella 760n black nylon wrap strings Hipshot Ultralight tuners weight 5.5 lbs. celluloid nitrate (tortoise-shell) binding on body overall instrument length 38" (same length as a Telecaster) Edited December 1, 2017 by LZD56 Bass now sold 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
