**TRADED** Ale Antia, 5 string, Semi-hollow body, Olive Top, 32" - one of the best looking basses! £1500

[dyerseve]

**NOW TRADED**

I know its a bold claim but I think the photos below go a long way to justifying that claim! 

Up for sale is a very special instrument handbuilt by Spanish luthier Ale http://www.aleguitarsluthier.com

 

 

This instrument is not only stunning to look at but sounds incredible and as well - it is hugely versatile too thanks to the combination of the Aguilar pickup, piezo bridge, 3 band EQ,

active/passive switching (EQ can be bypassed whilst active mode is engaged to give more headroom  and "zing" in the tone compared to the passive tone without having to adjust the EQ),

there is also a passive tone control, pickup blend and master volume.

 

 

Strung with new Newtone Diamond strings. It is in excellent condition cosmetically and perfect working order – all of the hardware and electronics function perfectly.

The first set of photos are from the manufacturers website(because my photos don’t do the beauty of this bass justice).

The second set of photos are mine just to prove the condition

I am only selling this because I now own a Ritter!

Thank you. Yes I got it from her on BC as a trade for a Wal. Let's just say I didn't miss the Wal....

Hi Jerry sorry for the late reply. I wouldn't say acoustic - hard to describe exactly but if you watch this clip it will give you a feel for the tone of these basses:
