ivyserpent Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 (edited) I got unique Zon Sonus Custom 5 with cocobolo top to sell. This particular bass was review in Bass Guitar Magazine Issue 45, August 2009. Made In: USA Finish: High gloss Body: Ash with cocobolo top (cocobolo is a tropical hardwood that grows in the pacific regions of Central America,it has an irregular concentric grain and reddish-brown hue) Neck: Carbon fibre/wood Composite,bolt-on Fingerboard: Phenowood,305mm radius (12 inches) Frets: 24 Pickups: 2x Zon/Bartolini Controls: 1x master volume,1x pickup blend, 3-band active EQ. Hardware: Gotoh GB7 tunners Bridge: Zon adjustable top-loading bridge Nut: Width 40 mm (1.6 inches) Scale length: 864 (34 inches) Weight:3.9 (8lb 6oz) What Bass Magazine was thinking about that guitar: Plus: Impeccable construction,stunning looks and pro sounds. Minus: None Overall:Intelligent design,premium built quality and outstanding tone combine to make the Sonus and ideal instrument for the pro player. Bass is in near mint condition -one screw is missing from back plate It has "musicman" looks like hard case. I will add that Bass Guitar Magazine as well. No trades please just sale.

wombatboter Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 It rarely becomes better than this.....
whentbass Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 Are you the original owner? If that's not my old Sonus then it's an identical copy. It was an awesome bass, I bought another Sonus straight after!
HazBeen Posted February 19, 2018 Posted February 19, 2018 I think I just wet myself... Zon’s are great.
ivyserpent Posted February 23, 2018 Author Posted February 23, 2018 @ wentbass -not original owner. Bump.
fretmeister Posted February 28, 2018 Posted February 28, 2018 Small error I think - there is no way that Nut Width is only 40mm. Lovely bass though.
Sandypjb Posted March 3, 2018 Posted March 3, 2018 I don' normally bother to comment on stuff for sale but....Oh my goodness.

Jerrylejer Posted September 12, 2018 Posted September 12, 2018 I don’t understand why it’s still available ... No more Zon lovers ? Great and beautiful bass !

whentbass Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 Fretboard is Phenowood. I’m almost certain I used to own this bass. If not it is Identical to the Sonus I bought from Stuart Clayton on here a couple of years ago. The nut width is the standard for the Sonus Custom model, which is around 46-47mm if I remember correctly. 1
whentbass Posted October 5, 2018 Posted October 5, 2018 Just looked at some old photos. 100% my old bass. A fantastic instrument. GLWTS 1
