Weed_ Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 (edited) Heavy heart, I am parting ways with this beautiful bass, since I fell in love with another...again :). It was my main bass for around a year, nothing bad I can say about it, except that the great sound also comes with great weight. However, everyone who knows Le Fay, knows that they are incredible ergonomic basses and balances so well on the strap, that you will soon forget about it. It really is the work of art and one of first series ever to be made by Le Fay. Slightly different shape than the new Pangtons (starting at 4840€) but just as good sounding. I bought it from the first owner about a year ago and am starting the price at 50% of new. Specifications: 36” scale Ebony fret board 24 frets Wenge body with paduk set neck Le Fay humbuckers with ebony frames 2 volumes + filter 5,5 Kg It has 2 flaws: -I had small strap accident, that left him with scar(crack) on the lower side(check photos). I wanted to send it to Reiner(maker) but he told me it is no big deal and any tech can easily fix it. However it did not bother me after few days and did not affect playing nor sound so I did not fix it. -the original screw thread on 6th string was profesionally replaced for new(by previous owner) works flawless Other than that, there are some signs that bass have been played but really good condition for its age. The volume pots does make a sound every now and then. Really great bass overall, unique ergonomic shape, incredible rich and full B string, plenty of harmonics everywhere, resonates like crazy unplugged through your body.

binky_bass Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 Very interesting indeed! Looks beautiful in its uniqueness.
Hellzero Posted February 24, 2018 Posted February 24, 2018 And terrific sounding basses. If you are into trades, just let me know and we'll discuss in PM.
Weed_ Posted June 8, 2018 Author Posted June 8, 2018 since I found something I really want I may throw free EU shipping in the price or offer additional discount. Make me an offer.
Weed_ Posted July 1, 2018 Author Posted July 1, 2018 (edited) 2000€ + shipping, last chance I am keeping it for less Keep in mind this is 40% price of new.. so 60% cheeper than new! Edited July 13, 2018 by Weed_
Weed_ Posted July 29, 2018 Author Posted July 29, 2018 (edited) 1800€ - That is nearly 3040€ cheeper than new... I would consider taking budget 6 string bass or a 4 string jazz/p + cash too. Edited July 29, 2018 by Weed_
Weed_ Posted September 6, 2018 Author Posted September 6, 2018 Ok, I really need to fund my new custom now, so I’ll offer the last price: 1600€, shipping excl. You’ll never find another deal like this, this bass is 4840€ new!!!! 1
ped Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 That really is an insane price. These basses are incredible!!

Hellzero Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 Neither do I. Neither do I. Neither do I. Neither do I. Either do I. Dammit square !
marcblum Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 The only thing better than one sixstring bass is... two sixstring basses! The only thing better than two sixstring basses is... three sixstring basses! The only thing better than three sixstring basses is... four sixstring basses! The only thing better than four sixstring basses is... five sixstring basses! to be continued
Hellzero Posted September 6, 2018 Posted September 6, 2018 Do I have to stop as I already have six six strings basses permanently at home, the seventh being a seven strings bass, and so on... ?
Weed_ Posted December 2, 2018 Author Posted December 2, 2018 Come on people, there is no way you will find this level instrument at this price again!!
Weed_ Posted January 27, 2019 Author Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) Not in need to sell anymore, however, it is rarely played since new bass arrived. Short clip of how it sounds Edited January 27, 2019 by Weed_
Weed_ Posted March 11, 2019 Author Posted March 11, 2019 It is a real shame for such a good bass, to collect dust(it doesn’t actually, safely stored :)) I am open for trades for moog SUB 37 or Voyager, also interested in Upright acoustic basses and studio gear, specially good mics.
Weed_ Posted May 16, 2019 Author Posted May 16, 2019 (edited) Come on people, serious bass for great price! 2000€ shipped in EU! Edited May 16, 2019 by Weed_
Weed_ Posted October 7, 2019 Author Posted October 7, 2019 Still for sale, need new Macbook pro (32gb model), that or €. 2000€ shipped in EU 24H delivery.
