Bassix folding double bass updated vid and pics """SOLD"""" £650

[sumorabbit]

Bassix folding upright bass in good working order, has a few battle scars and a rattle which don't affect playability. Sturdy and sounds good through an amp with the included pickup. More images of marks to follow when I pull it from storage at a relatives house, it just isn't getting used at the moment.

41.25 inches scale length, ebony fingerboard, pickup is a a Hurley from http://www.hurleypickups.com/

UPDATE, Ok I've finally pulled it from storage at my grandparents house and quickly filmed a vid while I was there, It's still there as I don't have space at home for it but I can collect it no problem if anybody wants to try it. New vid and pics below

Accepting £550

Bass'd in Chorley Lancashire

Surprised this hasn't sold.
Don't see too many about, and it looks a nice portable bass, which sounds more DB-like (to my ear) than many other portable DB options

I definitely don't need another bass, and have my own portable DB - but I just wish you were closer, so I could at least give it a whirl, as I've not tried one of these

Have a free bump anyway sumorabbit, and GLWTS

Cheers dood. I won't be too upset if it doesn't sell tbh, it's just a space issue at the moment in my new house. I have 3 uprights and a small gaff hence it sitting in storage at the moment. I've not had a single enquiry amazingly!

Loved my 2 Bassix uprights. This model is one of Alan's best. 

Surprised it's still here too.

Have you sold this?  I'm interested.  Have you got the travel box it would fit into once folded?  If not, can I buy one somewhere?  We are a touring band and need a bass we can check in.  Look forward to hearing from you.

Hi all, I just thought i’d Chime in on this....Mr Sumorabbit has been kind enough to allow me to baby sit this lovely upright bass while he has been abroad. (What a bloody legend eh???)

i have always wanted to try double bass, and have tried them a couple of times in music shops and really struggle to mange them physically and been put off. 

This is, even for a complete beginner upright player like me, a complete doodle to handle and sounds great!! If you are in the market for a bass like this, go for it!!!

Cheers Damon. Updated sale post with more specs and info
