Nice ACG at the Gallery

Yo!

And my new Harlot is getting there :)

I didn't intend for this great bass to end up on the 'open market' to be honest. I also didn't really want to part with it until my new 4 string Harlot was in my grubby mitts.

I am I realise destined to be a 4 string player and that's the ONLY reason I was parting with this superb bass.

I aired the idea of selling the 5 stringer through Alan when I had my 4 string ACG Harlot. It just turned out that Alan had had an enquiry from a guy in Greece looking for a 5 stringer and one thing led to another. The bass was delivered to the Bass Gallery for the new owner to collect.

The new owner loved the quality, balance and tone of the Harlot but couldn't get on with the neck. I'm a little surprised at this as Alan's necks are assymetrically finished and finely crafted for ease of playing. It's one of Alan's major criteria. But I'm me and the new owner may of had very small hands or some other issue?

Anyway the bass sprung up on the Gallery at an inflated price and I was very annoyed initially thinking the guy had pulled a fast one to earn a few bob. But on talking to him it seems it was not so.

This is a virtually new, unmarked, beautiful instrument and if you get the chance it's well worth a try. A chance to get a great custom ACGs without waiting however many months for it to be built.
