walshy Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 (edited) *** NOW £1350*** Shuker Flea Rockinfreakapotamus Never thought I’d sell it but I have another in Shell Pink en route so needs must!! I originally asked Jon to build me a neck for a potential build I had in mind which after a few emails between us turned into a full build, and it was the right decision. Its a beauty! Based-ish on the new Fender Flea is playing which Fender should actually release! ( was in a RHCP tribute see ) I asked Jon to build me something cool with some parts I had accumulated. Badass Bridge, '79 Stingray pup, Aguilar OBP-1 preamp and between my incessant emails and Jon's vision and patience we/he came up with this. Plays like a dream and sounds absolutely huge, lots of growl and clarity in spades. Maple board, painted alder body and based on a jazz-ish with a few tweaks here and there. Spec 34” scale 22 fret 1.5” nut width 22mm deep at 1st fret 24mm deep at 12th old C profile 7.25 fretboard radius maple neck maple fretboard off white face dots, 6mm 2mm white side dots small fret wire two way truss rod carbon fibre reinforcement satin neck lacquer drilled for fender size tuners (schaller) bone nut More than welcome to come and try up in Hexham, comes with a hardcase. Sale preferred but interested/ looking for a candy apple red 70’s P bass Edited June 24, 2018 by walshy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kevin Dean Posted May 23, 2018 Share Posted May 23, 2018 Very tempted , What's the range of tones or is it designed for CP type sounds ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can get loads from it, not just a Flea sound. Obviously does the Stingray tone and growl well but it’s not a one trick pony! Welcome to come and try anytime, tea and biscuits readily available 😉 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Delberthot Posted June 18, 2018 Share Posted June 18, 2018 I had a thought about building exactly this bass after seeing the Chilis last year. Unfortunately I'm still a few hundred short or I'd have had it off you in a heartbeat Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
