Grantd Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) This beautiful Marleaux Sopran bass in fantastic condition. Created with Marleaux hand-crafted care, tuned an octave up from standard, has a beautiful piano-like quality to each note. Can be used with an octave pedal to achieve standard bass tones (though works best with a high quality unit). Incredibly good fun, light and extremely easy to play, it's quite addictive really and so easy to carry around. The original gig bag (Warwick Rockbass with Marleaux branding) is included in the sale, as are the hex keys. Carefully sourced wood: http://www.regio-tone-wood.com/ This bass is in Edinburgh but could be shipped.

Grantd Posted January 20, 2019 Author Share Posted January 20, 2019 (edited) I use the standard strings from Marleaux: Stainless steel Gauges:: 30 - 40 - 60 - 80 but I have heard of players using labella and DR Neon strings.
