lownote Posted December 31, 2017 Posted December 31, 2017 (edited) I bought my SRSC805 neck thru single cut for a project which is now nearing completion. In very good condition, just a very few small dings. With 24 frets and strung E-C its fabulous for chords and classical pieces. Strung B-G it's a funk machine. Small body and very lightweight and nicely balanced for a 5 string. And where are you going to get a single cut bass away from several grand more from Zon or Fodera? Currently strung B-G. Comes with a boxed Glockenklang 3 band preamp which itself costs over £100. I haven't felt the need to fit it, but I'm told it makes awesome even awesomer. This bass retails at around £950, but I just want what I paid for it - £625 For all the usual reasons I'd prefer collection or would deliver within a 50 radius of Diss, Norfolk. I can post but at insured courier rate, which won't be cheap given its value. The only trade I'd be interested in would be a Hohner B Bass VI with a good deal of money coming my way, or a Yamaha TBR 6. Edited January 16, 2018 by lownote12
Bassdude BE Posted December 31, 2017 Posted December 31, 2017 That's gorgious! Did you change the nut for the E-C tuning?
lownote Posted December 31, 2017 Author Posted December 31, 2017 Nope, didn't seem to need it so it's still as God intended.
funkydario Posted January 6, 2018 Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) Beautiful...what's the strings spacing ? 34" ? Edited January 6, 2018 by funkydario
lownote Posted January 6, 2018 Author Posted January 6, 2018 (edited) From the middle of each string to the middle of its neighbour at the bridge, 18.5mm, although the book quotes 18. 34" scale yup. Edited January 6, 2018 by lownote12 1
BaggyMan Posted January 8, 2018 Posted January 8, 2018 Have played this...its a beauty, lighter than you'd expect, very comfortable. 1
CameronJ Posted January 10, 2018 Posted January 10, 2018 Yep, these are lovely basses. If I had the cash I’d be tempted myself!
therealting Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Really wish my fretting hand could cope with the slim Soundgear necks, because these are absolutely gorgeous.
castlemaine22 Posted January 11, 2018 Posted January 11, 2018 Very nice, what is the weight please? Any neck dive when seated without a strap? 1
lownote Posted January 11, 2018 Author Posted January 11, 2018 4.1 kg. I just tried the neck dive thing and while it won't sit on the knee unsupported without tipping toward the headstock, once you've got a hand under the neck there's no feeling of having to counter neck dive. My Fender P bass is the same. 1
lownote Posted January 13, 2018 Author Posted January 13, 2018 Likely going to a well known bass retailer for a commission sale if its not gone by this coming week.
ianrendall Posted January 15, 2018 Posted January 15, 2018 Can you PM me with a postage quote to Somerset? Many Regards
