nickmew Posted March 14, 2018 Share Posted March 14, 2018 (edited) Reduced Again Now £1800 including shipping in UK, Europe by negotiation Unfortunately need to shift this now Sad it has come to this, but I'm afraid I've come to the conclusion that 5 strings, at least for fretless are not for me. Therefore I'm offering up my beautiful Rob Allen MB-2 5 string for someone with more patience / talent to enjoy. It has a gorgeous flame / figured walnut top on an alder body, walnut neck with a cocobolo fingerboard. Plays like butter and has got that fantastic acoustic sounding 'mwah' thing going on as you'd expect from a Rob Allen. It's not mint but in good condition with no significant dings Currently strung with the clear tape wound 760 La Bella's rather than the blacks that you usually see. Comes with Rob Allen branded Levy's gig bag, matching walnut thumb rest (currently not fitted) Not really looking for trades, unless someone out there has a nice 4 string MB-2 / Deep 4 and they want an extra string. Couple of stock images of the actual bass below my own pictures that do it more justice As it's an expensive item and I don't have a hard case, collection preferred (or I can travel to deliver within reason), but will be willing to pack properly and ship if necessary. Shipping included for UK, elsewhere cost when we work out what it'll cost! Edited May 17, 2018 by nickmew Sold 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
