Ultra Rare Heartfield DR-4 Active Bass. 1980's MIJ. **SOLD** £495

[phsycoandy]

Made in the early 80's for about 10 years. High quality Japanese made active bass, often referred to as the poor mans WAL because of the EQ circuit employed and the XLR Low Z output for recording as well as the standard Jack. 
She is in Black Pearl Burst and the finish is very deep and lustrous, there are a few age related small dings but nothing at all serious. Everything works and is original including the Heartfield pickups etc.
Stunning bass and easy to play, really needs some new strings now.
Rare as hen's teeth. Shipping is £20 UK. Serial is K81123.
There is lots of info on line just type Heartfield DR. SOLD

You don't get many of those to the pound! Used to have serious GAS for 5 string one of these. GLWTS!

 Ooh nice. Never heard of these before which prompted a bit of Googling.

Article below is an interesting read generally, but has a good paragraph on Heartfield.
